Guide to Suppressing Payment Notification of GoCardless for Subscription Payments
Overview
This feature will allow GoCardless customers to manage the advance payment collection notices sent to customers, rather than using the GoCardless emails. This will not affect the mandatory emails which are part of the BACS Scheme rules (e.g. the emails sent following Direct Debit set up). To use this feature you need to complete the mandatory approval process and package configuration as described below.
Approval Process
To be able to handle customer notifications yourself, you will need to be granted permission by GoCardless. It is a two step approval process when you are using GoCardless connection with Asperato to ensure compliance with Direct Debit scheme rules
- Write to GoCardless Support at help@gocardless.com. Mention that you wish to handle “payment_created” notification for all the schemes that you intend to use (eg., SEPA, BACS, BECS, PAD, ACH, etc.). Please note that to GoCardless, you will have to individually mention the schemes for which you intend to handle the notifications. Refer GoCardless documentation here. Check in the section “Getting custom notifications enabled” for more information.
- Write to Asperato Support at support@asperato.com to enable the suppression of GoCardless Notifications for Payments being created.We are required by GoCardless to see evidence of your handling of notifications. For this purpose our Customer Success team would ask you to complete a self-signed form and provide the confirmation email from GoCardless. Once we have these two documents our team would enable this feature for your Salesforce org.
