We are excited to announce that Direct Debit payments are now live on teamo! We have partnered with GoCardless to allow our clubs to receive Direct Debit payments from members.

Why choose Direct Debit at your club?

TeamoPay now offers the option for admins to create and link a GoCardless account to Membership, Match Fee's and Ticket products. This payment method will allow clubs and teams to be more flexible and offers many benefits to help clubs stay on top of payments.

GoCardless could increase your total income with no setup fee's and low transaction costs, only 1% charge per transaction with a minimum transaction fee of 20p and capped at a maximum of £2. This only seems small but could really make a difference come the end of the year.

A straightforward and safe method for your members to pay. For the first payment made by a user, they will be required to set-up a mandate with the club account, simply just confirming the account they wish to make transactions from. All future transactions can then be made in a couple of taps from their My Payments page.

The Direct Debit Guarantee means that if a payment has been made incorrectly, the payee is entitled to a full and instantaneous refund from their bank. Customers can also cancel a mandate at any time by contacting their bank. Take a look at our GoCardless User Guide for more information.
