Overview
This gateway gives organizations using the GiveWP donation plugin a way to accept Direct Debit donations from donors’ bank accounts. Donors can use it as an alternative to card payments, while fundraisers can collect one-time or recurring donations. Because bank mandates do not expire like credit cards, recurring donations can continue without card expiration causing a payment interruption.
The plugin connects GoCardless with GiveWP without requiring an API key setup. Its settings let fundraisers adjust the gateway for their campaigns, and a GoCardless Sandbox provides an environment for testing payments before going live. The gateway supports donations in GBP, EUR and SEK, making it suited to organizations that accept contributions in those currencies.
Features
- Direct Debit donations: Accept donations drawn directly from donors’ bank accounts through GoCardless, giving supporters an alternative to traditional card payments.
- Recurring giving support: Works with GiveWP’s Recurring Donations add-on, so fundraisers can collect ongoing Direct Debit donations through recurring giving forms.
- No API key setup: Connect GoCardless with GiveWP without configuring an API key, reducing the technical setup required for the payment gateway.
- Campaign settings: Adjust the gateway’s configurable options to suit the requirements of a fundraising campaign.
- Sandbox testing: Use the GoCardless Sandbox to test payment flows before accepting live donations.
- Multiple currencies: Accept donations in GBP, EUR and SEK through the GoCardless payment gateway.
