GoCardless, the London-based fintech startup that aims to take the pain out of getting paid for businesses with recurring revenue has launched a U.S. debit solution. In addition to it, the company has also announced the opening of a U.S. headquarters in San Francisco. Notably, GoCardless has offices in London, Paris, Munich, and Melbourne.
Simplifying recurring payment process!
In a bid to simplify the recurring payment process, GoCardless has announced a new product on its platform to support debit payment on the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network.
With this move, businesses can use the GoCardless platform in the U.S. to offer consumers the option to pay by recurring bank payments instead of credit cards.
Right now, the platform works across 30 countries and covers 70 percent of the world’s recurring payments by volume.
Why ACH debit?
According to the company, ACH debit is becoming an increasingly popular choice for B2B payments in the U.S. and is expected to be more widely used than traditional payment methods, like cheques, by 2020. Moreover, the businesses using the GoCardless ACH debit solution gain increased payment visibility via a “fully automated” collection system.
ACH debit payments in the U.S. are processed through the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network, which is run and regulated by the National Automated Clearing House Association (NACHA).
