GoCardless for WooCommerce

GoCardless for WooCommerce is an official extension that connects your online store with GoCardless's bank debit payment platform, one of the leading direct debit providers in the UK and Europe. It is designed for businesses that need to charge recurring or direct payments from the customer's bank account, without relying exclusively on credit cards.

This payment gateway allows you to accept one-time and recurring payments directly from your WooCommerce store. It is ideal for businesses that manage subscriptions, memberships, fees, invoices, or installment payments, as it automates billing and eliminates the friction of manual payments. Customers can complete the payment by entering their bank details at the GoCardless checkout, without leaving your website.

The extension offers global coverage through multiple payment methods: BACS direct debit in the UK, SEPA in Europe, ACH in the US, and BECS in Australia, as well as open banking payments in the UK, Ireland, Germany, and France. It also includes advanced features such as Success+, which automatically retries failed payments, and Protect+, which intelligently detects fraud.

GoCardless for WooCommerce is compatible with WooCommerce Subscriptions, allowing you to accept automatic and recurring payments for subscription products, and with WooCommerce Pre-Orders, to manage pre-orders with payment options at checkout or upon product launch. Setup is simple: just connect your GoCardless account via OAuth or an access token, and the plugin takes care of the rest.

With transparent pricing and no setup costs, this extension is the perfect solution for businesses looking to reduce card fees, avoid chargeback risks, and ensure timely and predictable payments directly from their customers' bank accounts.
