The smarts to boost revenue

By combining Direct Debit and Variable Recurring Payment (VRP) technologies, we’ve cut out the dependency on cards and all the problems associated with them. This means boosted conversion rates and a reduction in failed payment rates.

Solving countless payment problems

No missed-payments

Card payments fail 18% of the time due to lost or expired cards. Our API connects straight to your customer's bank account, guaranteeing less frustration for your customers and no missed payments for you.

Exceptional conversion

Traditional recurring payments are painful for customers to set up. Our API saves customers time by removing manual data entries, and verifying ID in one simple first-payment experience, transforming conversion rates.

Flexible payments

Our Recurring Payments API gives customers the checkout choice they want. From fixed plans to variable payments, we give you and your customers freedom to organise the best plan for you.

Lower costs

We eliminate dependencies on cards, bringing you clever alternatives to card-on-file set-ups. Our subscriptions and split payments cost less per transaction, and reduce fraud, churn, chargebacks and payment failure.

A major upgrade for customers too

Easy to set up

With smart engineering and beautifully designed user experiences, we give your customers a refreshingly simple set-up experience. We cut out the manual-input time associated with traditional recurring payments.

Easy to manage

Customers are wary of 'subscription traps,' where details are hard to see or cancel. Our payment plan details are highly visible and manageable in customer bank apps, helping them take control of budgeting decisions.

Better security

Our innovative Recurring Payments do not depend on cards. So the associated fraud risks are much lower. And through open-banking, biometric security is seamlessly integrated into a simple sign-up process.

Built in protection

Both Variable Recurring Payments and Direct Debit technology offer built-in merchant and customer protections. This means customers feel reassured that funds will not be taken in error, helping build confidence.

Enjoy a network full of potential

We facilitate over 40% of all Pay by Bank transactions for some of Europe's biggest and most successful businesses.

Huge volumes of customers mean we’re able to create the most optimised and localised user-experiences in the industry.

Customers love the experience, and the growing familiarity with Pay by Bank means we’re seeing up to 90% conversion rates for returning customers.

So every new business joining us benefits from our rapidly expanding, high converting network of users.

Flexible payments that work for every industry

Subscriptions

Our subscriptions do things differently for your customers. We’ve made them highly visible, easy to set up and cancel. So now providing simple, flexible payment plans is now a joy for everyone.

Money management

Whether customers are saving, repaying loans or topping-up accounts, we’ve simplified and speeded up the process. Our seamless API moves funds in real-time and deposits immediately.

One click

With long-living mandates we can simplify payment experiences to a gratifying ‘one-click’, which customers love. So conversion rates are boosted and customers keep coming back.

Split payments

You can now cost-effectively offer customers the opportunity to spread out their payment into multiple instalments. That’s good for business and a great customer experience too.
