Payment by subscription,
a demanding model

vue générale de l'activité et des statuts d'abonnement d'un client
Subscriptions are attractive to businesses because of the recurring revenue and loyalty they generate. But the mechanics are complex, and can undermine the customer experience and cash flow.
Frequent payment failures, due to expired cards, ceilings reached, bank blocks, etc.
Time-consuming manual management: reminders, follow-up on rejections, multiple attempts, etc.
Strict regulatory obligations (management of SEPA mandates, LCB-FT, KYC / KYB, etc.)
Lack of fluidity between tools (ERP, CMS, etc.), a source of delays and errors

Make it easy for your customers
to collect their money

Go further in optimising the payment of your subscriptions, by automating card or SEPA direct debits

Strong authentication of the holder at the time of subscription

Automatic direct debit at each payment date

Customer notifications when updates are required

Our subscription-based payment solution

The subscription payment solution is aimed at merchants with a business model based on the payment of recurring fixed or variable fees:

  • Fixed recurring subscriptions: Periodic payment of a defined amount, which is fixed until the customer cancels (e.g. monthly or annual subscription).
  • Variable recurring subscriptions: Periodic payment of a defined sum, where the amount to be paid varies (e.g. pay-as-you-go subscription, freemium model, discount subscription, etc.).

Setting up a SEPA direct debit differs from setting up a credit card direct debit.

A SEPA direct debit mandate must be issued and signed, specifying the authorized direct debit conditions.

  1. The merchant collects the information required to issue the mandate (surname, first name, IBAN, BIC, etc.) and sends it to the customer.
  2. The payer checks the information and signs the mandate.
  3. Funds are automatically debited according to the payment plan.

In the case of a direct debit initiated on a credit card, no contract is signed between the merchant and the cardholder.

  1. Payers enter their card code, expiry date and CVV on the dedicated form.
  2. It operates the 3DSecure process to authenticate the transaction.
  3. The funds are automatically debited from your credit card according to the payment plan.

To determine which is best for your business, several factors need to be taken into account:

  • Activity: The average amount of your direct debits, the desired sales path and the habits of your target customers.
  • Location: Depending on the country you're addressing, make sure you choose the direct debit type adapted to those areas.
  • Potential risks: Particular attention must be paid to the limits and expiry dates of the supports.
  • Costs: Payment by credit card and SDD involve different costs, depending on the risks and external charges associated with their use.

In general :

Several factors can cause direct debit failures (insufficient funds, rejections...), and impact your cash flow. CentralPay lets you set up new payment attempts, made in the event of failure, to automatically collect your outstanding receivables.
