Install WPdirectdebit
WPdirectdebit is a WordPress plugin. Follow this guide to install via WordPress admin. Once activated, you can configure the settings by following our user guide (WPdirectdebit settings).
Design your order form
Follow our user guide (designing forms) to design your order form using Gravity Forms, then place the form on a page.
Register your merchant account
Of course, the merchant must have a GoCardless account. In addition, before you can connect your website to GoCardless, the GoCardless account holder must have filled out and submitted a merchant registration application. This will be manually checked and approved, so is not instant. Allow at least 24 hours. The account holder will be notified once this is approved.
Test in sandbox mode
Make some test purchases with WPdirectdebit in sandbox mode. No real money will change hands. Then follow our user guide (going live) to take your store active.
