Integration Configuration
Once integrated with GoCardless, it is possible to employ many of its features directly from Unaric Payments.
Re-enable GoCardless payment notifications
To resume receiving payment notifications from GoCardless:
- Request Unaric Payments support ([email protected]) to set the Protected Customer Setting Bypass Payment Notifications by PSP back to false.
- Set the Custom Setting Suppress Notification for Payments in Salesforce back to false.
Passthrough parameters
It is possible to send custom values with GoCardless on the Authorisation and Payment records using Passthrough Parameters. For more information, see GoCardless - PSP Passthrough Parameters.
Development work is involved in implementing this feature. We strongly suggest appointing a Salesforce consultant to manage implementation.
GoCardless Faster ACH
It usually takes 4-5 working days to receive a direct debit ACH payment in your bank account. GoCardless are accelerating this process by charging your customers on the same day that you create payments, and sending payouts ‘same day’, reducing processing time by 2 days. Chat to your GoCardless Customer Success Manager to have this feature enabled on your account. They will advise you once this is done.
Payment creation requirements
The Due Date (in GoCardless this is charge_date) must be the same date that the payment is submitted ( i.e today) and must adhere to the following NACHA conditions:
- It must be a domestic payment (no international ones)
- Equal to or less than $1m
To make sure the intended Faster ACH payments are charged the same day, they must be submitted before the submission deadline of 11am EST. Anything after that time will fall into standard ACH processing times.
Payment records reflect the payout reference number that is generated by GoCardless when a payment has been completed.
Suppress Direct Debit Notifications sent by PSP
It is possible to request the suppression of Direct Debit Notifications. Contact support at [email protected] to request this suppression if you would like to send your own Direct Debit messaging.
Test Direct Debit
When setting up a mandate or processing a Direct Debit payment, there are inherent delays in receiving confirmation. The time required for mandate confirmation varies by region. For instance, in the UK, it typically takes approximately three days. For precise timing details specific to your region, consult your Direct Debit provider.
These processing delays can significantly impede testing workflows. To facilitate efficient testing, GoCardless provides Scenario Simulators. Given the nature of the Unaric Payments integration, we suggest using Name-triggered scenarios.
