Capital On Tap Selects Gocardless For Variable Recurring Payments

Capital on Tap, a leading all-in-one small business credit card and spend management platform, has selected bank payment company GoCardless to provide Variable Recurring Payments (VRPs) through its open banking feature, Instant Bank Pay. This expands a relationship which began in 2014, when Capital on Tap first selected GoCardless for Direct Debit. Capital on Tap will use GoCardless to collect both one-off and recurring payments, enabling them to offer greater payment flexibility to their small business customers. Capital on Tap customers will be able to repay their credit cards on a monthly basis using Direct Debit, and have the option to make weekly repayments and recurring payments for variable amounts through open banking. Damian Brychcy, CEO of Capital on Tap, said: “We’ve worked with GoCardless for over a decade, collecting more than £2.5bn in Direct Debits with over £15m saved in card fees. Given these successes, it made sense to choose GoCardless for open banking payments — not only building on our strong relationship but also benefitting from the convenience of collecting both recurring and ad hoc payments through one trusted provider
