Email field is required
Before sending traffic to a payment page that uses GoCardless, confirm that the email field is present on the form.

What happens when a GoCardless payment fails?

SystemeScale will make three attempts to collect the payment.

The time between each attempt depends on the customer's bank.

However, you can reduce the number of direct debits for each currency and change the direct debit delay in your GoCardless account settings. SystemeScale will handle the attempts based on your configuration.
