Why SaaS platforms are choosing Adfin for payments

The hidden complexity of platform payments

Most SaaS platforms today patch together multiple payment tools: Stripe for cards, GoCardless for Direct Debit, maybe something else for wallets or bank transfers. It gets the job done, but it’s far from smooth.

Product teams are stuck managing different integrations, workflows, and support channels. Their users, small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) end up juggling two or more platforms just to get paid. It’s confusing, time-consuming, and error-prone.

Adfin changes that. One integration. Every payment method that matters.

Why does this matter to SMBs?

UK-based SMBs are busy running their businesses. They don’t have time to:

  • Navigate two or more payment providers
  • Reconcile different payout schedules
  • Wonder where each payment is in the process
  • Ask clients to jump between platforms just to pay an invoice

In an era of automation and AI, running payments should be invisible. Cash flow shouldn’t be a constant worry. Business owners want to focus on customers, not on chasing invoices.

What does Adfin fix?

Adfin replaces that with one unified payment flow, embedded inside the tools that SMBs already use.

With Adfin, SMBs can:

  • Get paid by Direct Debit, Card, Apple Pay or Google Pay - all in one platform
  • Offer clients a familiar, branded checkout experience for all payment methods
  • Track every invoice and payment in one dashboard
  • Cut payment setup from hours to minutes
  • One simple fee across all payment methods.

All of the payments and invoices are reconciled automatically with accounting software (Xero / Quickbooks), meaning no more manual reconciliations for businesses.

Why plug Adfin into your platform

The real power of Adfin lies in its full integration into platforms. Payment flows become a native part of customer management, eliminating the need to jump between tools.

Focus on where you add value

Invoices can be paid in lots of ways: up front, in instalments, collected after the event, discounts for faster payment... and conventional PSP integrations require you to build and manage all that complexity in your platform. With Adfin, we take care of it for you - freeing up time to develop your core product.

Intelligent payments

Open banking is great - but too many consumers are not ready for it. We intelligently present card and bank payments together to maximise acceptance, while minimising cost. It’s the best of both worlds in one integration.

Earn more

Improve your revenue from payments while outsourcing all the cost and complexity to us. Use the freed-up dev resources to invest in your core product, generating much better longer-term returns for your business. You haven’t built your own word processor: why build your own payments system?

Adfin handles the credit control, chasing, and reconciliation behind the scenes. That’s less work for your users and a better experience for their customers.
