GoCardless ne yapar

At GoCardless we believe that bank payments are the best way to pay and get paid. We help businesses collect both recurring and one-off payments, without the chasing, stress or expensive fees. We’re building a global bank payment network that lets people make and collect payments straight from their bank account, across multiple countries and currencies. 75,000+ businesses around the world trust us to power their payments. We enable them to collect payments from 30+ countries, processing over $30 billion each year. Our suite of add-on products are helping businesses face their payment challenges head on. From automatically recovering failed payments, to challenging charge backs and fighting fraud - all without compromising their customer’s payment experience. Our open banking leadership unlocks the ability to make and accept direct bank payments confidently and securely. And our acquisition of Nordigen means we’re also helping businesses make faster and more informed decisions by accessing and generating insights from their customers’ bank account data. We’re also backed by some of the world’s leading investors including Accel Partners, Bain Capital Ventures, Balderton Capital, GV (formerly Google Ventures), Notion Capital, Passion Capital, Permira and Salesforce Ventures. We're a global team, with offices in London, Paris, Riga, Melbourne and New York.

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We provide a platform that lets businesses collect recurring and one-off payments directly from customers' bank accounts across multiple countries and currencies. Our product reduces the hassle of chasing payments and cuts expensive fees for businesses. Beyond simple payments, we offer add-ons like recovering failed payments automatically and fighting fraud to improve the payment experience.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in London, England, and the company is based there and will remain based in London after YC.

Explain your decision regarding location.

London has a strong fintech ecosystem and access to our early users. We know this market well and have networks here, so it makes sense to build the company where our customers and team are.

Sıkça Sorulan Sorular

Bu, GoCardless şirketinin gerçek YC başvurusu mu?

Hayır. Y Combinator gönderilen başvuruları gizli tutar. Bu bir yeniden yapılandırmadır: gerçek YC form soruları, GoCardless'in kamuya açık verilerinden (lansman notları, kurucu geçmişleri, ürün açıklaması) yanıtlanmıştır. GoCardless gibi bir şirketin YC'ye kendisini nasıl sunacağını gösterir, gönderdikleri metni değil.
