Leverage open banking to collect recurring payments

SlimCollect works for both recurring and one-off payments. Collect them directly from your customer’s account in just a few clicks. Fast, secure and easy to use.

SlimCollect - versions available on mobile and desktop

Payments are quick, simple and secure

Payments are carried out directly from bank to bank—no middle man, no fuss. This means a more secure experience, and customers complete the payment with the banking app they recognise and trust.

No more tracking down overdue payments

Once a customer approves a payment, they can’t request a return. Payments are irreversible. This means less admin work and better cash flow optimisation—both a huge win for merchants.

Higher conversion, happier customers

Customers are automatically redirected to their bank app to pay. No need to type in long account numbers—they simply approve the payment and are then redirected back to the merchant site.

SlimCollect in Action – A Few Use Cases

Subscription payment for an internet service

Internet service providers often send equipment before the first month is debited. This can lead to significant losses if a customer never pays. SlimCollect Recurring collects the first payment using open banking; subsequent payments with Direct Debit.

Collect a failed payment with with a payment link

If a payment fails, you can recover it with a simple payment link that can be sent through SMS, email, etc. The customer clicks on the link and immediately starts an open banking payment path for a one-off payment, validated in their banking app. Also used by debt collection agencies.

Freemium model for a music streaming service

Sign up your new customer and collect their IBAN using open banking. Give them three months free to try the service, without charging them anything. After the freemium period, the customer will be debited using the IBAN collected in the beginning.

SlimCollect and the Repeat Economy

Consumer habits have evolved in recent years and they no longer want a one-size-fits-all model. Consumers want to buy on their own terms and return to a brand as many or few times as they decide—with or without a subscription.

Merchants must shift their focus from acquisition to retention, and invest more in the customer experience, ensuring that consumers return to their brand. At SlimPay, this is what we call The Repeat Economy. Although important, payment is secondary to what your brand is offering.

Make your payment journey simple, secure and quick so customers can enjoy your products and services and return in the future. Using SlimCollect and other payment methods, you can address the payment needs of your customers, whether it be one-off, recurring or anything in between.
