  1. Once enabled, click Settings > Configure Chargebee > Payment Gateway > Stripe.

  2. Enable BACS Direct Debit (For UK region only) to configure direct debit payments for UK-based customers.

  1. Enter the following details on the BACS Configuration page shown below:

  2. Business Name

  3. Business Email

  4. Contact Number

  5. Select the option Send BACS compliant emails from Chargebee to send emails to customers regarding mandate creation and payment pre-notification from Chargebee. The advantage of sending this email from Chargebee is that it allows you to configure elements such as your company logo, signature, and more.

  6. Click Save.

Payment Flow

  1. If you have chosen Gateway JS, you will be redirected from the merchant's website to a gateway-hosted checkout page. Otherwise, Chargebee's checkout is used.

  2. The end customer enters the bank account details and confirms them. A mandate is generated based on the entered details, which authorizes the Gateway to collect the payment.

  3. Once a mandate is generated, Stripe verifies it in 3 business days, and then another 3 business days are required to confirm the success or failure of the payment.

Email Notifications

You must notify your customers during mandate creation and before they are charged. To do so, you can enable the following email notifications in Chargebee:

  • Mandate Creation

  • Pre-notification

Follow the steps below to navigate to these notifications

  1. Go to Settings > Configure Chargebee > Email Notifications

  2. Select the Payments and credits category

Both notifications will be available there. You can edit the template as per your requirements.
