Secure card payment gateways for business

Add a card payment option

London & Zurich’s credit card payment gateway fits alongside your existing Direct Debit setup,
so you can offer the best of both worlds. One provider, one relationship, no awkward gaps in your payment journey.

Flexibility for your business

Not every customer is ready to set up a Direct Debit from day one. Some want to pay a one-off deposit by card before committing to a regular collection. Others simply prefer the flexibility of paying by card for certain transactions.

Without a card payment option, you’re asking those customers to wait or walk away. That’s revenue left on the table before the relationship has even started.

How it works

Step 1.

One-off card payment first

A customer pays a deposit or setup fee by credit or debit card, completing a secure transaction through your hosted payment gateway

Step 2.

Direct Debit takes over

Once the initial card payment is confirmed, the customer moves seamlessly onto a Direct Debit mandate for ongoing collections

Step 3.

Everything in one place

Both payment types are managed through your London & Zurich portal, giving you full visibility without jumping between platforms

Step 4.

PCI compliant card processing, handled for you

Card payment security isn’t optional and getting it wrong is expensive. London & Zurich’s gateway is certified to PCI DSS Level 1, the highest level of the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), meaning every transaction is processed to the strictest security requirements.

Because we use hosted payment pages, cardholder data never passes through your own systems, which significantly reduces your compliance burden.
