When it comes to simplifying payments, recurring billing is a valuable payment feature partners can integrate within their software solution. Linked with a credit or debit card, recurring billing collects scheduled payments with real-time authorizations, while providing all the necessary tools in one platform. Payments can be scheduled monthly, weekly, bi-weekly or at a pre-determined interval. There are several advantages recurring billing can offer to both partners and their customers.
The first advantage of recurring billing is increased revenue for both partners and their customers. Recurring billing creates predicable incoming revenue, so partners and their customers do not have to worry about receiving their payments. Having an all-in-one payment system that seamlessly manages a variety of payment options will allow partners and their customers to get paid faster and improve cash flow, which will reduce operating costs and increased customer retention.
The second advantage is security. Partners can rest assured that their customer’s confidential payment information is securely stored and managed with our security solution, 1stPayVault™. 1stPayVault™ uses tokenization to process payments while protecting sensitive card data, giving your customers the highest level of data security.
