GoCardless operates a global bank payment network that simplifies payment collection for businesses through direct debit and open banking. Founded in 2011, the company processes more than $130 billion in annual payments for over 100,000 customers across 30+ countries, with connections to 2,500+ banks through open banking infrastructure.
The platform automates payment recovery, using intelligent retry logic to recover up to 70% of failed transactions. In 2022, GoCardless acquired Nordigen, expanding its bank data connectivity capabilities. The company serves businesses ranging from small enterprises to large firms like Tripadvisor and DocuSign, with office locations in London and Leeds, and regional presence across Europe, North America, and Australia.
GoCardless focuses on making bank payments accessible to businesses of all sizes by removing friction from payment collection workflows. The company prioritises learning, wellbeing, and sustainability within its workplace culture.
