​
What to Know

  • Funds usually settle 4–5 business days (secure renewal is guaranteed)
  • New services are delivered after settlement
  • Not ideal if you require immediate provisioning
  • Seettlement is delayed by public holidays and weekends
SEPA direct debit works best when used to top up account credit.
This combines automated payments with instant service delivery. We can assist with setting up the mandate and migrating your services smoothly to SEPA Direct Debit.

​
PayPal Subscriptions

Automation level: ⭐
Reliability: ⭐
Operational overhead: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ PayPal subscriptions can work for:
  • Private users
  • A small number of static services
However, they can become difficult to manage for business use cases involving frequent changes (upgrades, cancellation + re-orders) Recommendation:
For business customers, we strongly recommend credit cards or account credit instead.

​
Our Recommendation

For a smooth, fully automated payment experience, choose one of the following setups:
  • Credit card payment
  • Account credit funded by credit card
  • Account credit funded by SEPA direct debit, Bank Transfer or Crypto
These setups consistently result in fewer payment issues and uninterrupted service.
