Using PayPal for Direct Debits
Getting regular subscriptions from people is difficult if you are a small business with limited banking facilities. We use a system that is cheap, quick to set up and more versatile than any other.
PayPal can make your business fly
We have been using PayPal for many years with great effect and no downside. It is not the PayPal you are familiar with because we use the business facilities that they provide and the end result is that we get a complete service with efficiency levels close to 100%.
What do we do? Well, everyone can get their own PayPal account and many of you use this for online payments such as eBay but, did you know that your business can literally run itself on a PayPal Pro Manager account?

You need to charge for monthly, or quarterly amounts? no problem! PayPal takes the information you put in, opens a recurring billing account [2 minutes work] and then processes the payments when you want, advises you the payment is made, notifies the customer, puts the money into your account and advises you if payment has failed, retries daily and keeps you posted daily.
Ad-hoc payments are a breeze, if you have add-on charges each month or occasionally just put in the amount, press enter, payment made.
Take orders over the phone? do you need to process credit cards? hold an amount against a card? issue refunds? - The online PDQ machine provides you with single or bulk transactions and works as effectively as a manual machine in a shop or office.
Want your money into your bank? you can have it transferred immediately, or within 2-3 working days no problem.
For a small business this system is perfect because you are not required to have a minimum level of business and you are charged no more for the transactions than you would be elsewhere.
As for seeing the PayPal logo. Your customers can manage their transactions online on your site without ever knowing PayPal is providing the service and the safeguards are as good if not better than normal fraud protection so you get a powerful service that makes your payment problems go away.
