InvoiceQuickly + GoCardless: Collect Invoices via Direct Debit

Direct debit is the most reliable way to collect recurring invoice payments. GoCardless integration lets you set up mandates once, then collect automatically on each invoice due date — reducing failed payments and eliminating manual chasing.

How It Works

1

Connect GoCardless

Link your GoCardless account to InvoiceQuickly. Supports GoCardless for UK (Bacs), EU (SEPA), US (ACH), and Australia (BECS).

2

Client signs mandate

When a client receives their first invoice, they authorize a direct debit mandate — a one-time setup.

3

Automatic collection

On each invoice due date, GoCardless automatically collects the payment from the client's bank account.

4

Reconciliation and notifications

Payments reconcile automatically. Both you and the client receive confirmation.
