Subscription Services

Process recurring payments easily and securely

Subscription Services Growth

Subscription-based business models are currently the fastest growing e-commerce models in Europe. Expectations are that this will only increase more over time and gain popularity. In subscription based services, it is all about building long-term customer relationships resulting in stable recurring income. So, no one-off sales.

Subscription services exist in the several forms: product-as-a-service, service subscriptions, recurring products and digital products. This global Subscription Commerce Economy has a compound annual growth rate of 17.33% over the past five years.

Buckaroo offers support in the financial process by offering the Smart Subscription Services solution. This solution allows for efficiently setting up subscription models while considering and optimizing a high-quality user experience for the subscriber.

Product-as-a-Service

Use products without owning them, for example: a bike, washing machine or car (lease).

Service subscriptions

Access to a service, such as: phone plans, insurances or utilities.

Recurring products

Receive products on a frequent basis, for instance: box subscriptions, flowers & cosmetics.

Digital products

Digital content used on a device, like: video-on-demand, e-Learning & online workouts.

Our Smart Subscription Services solution:

Buckaroo Smart Subscription Services supports all subscription types. From simple subscriptions up to complex structures with possibilities for premiums or add-on's. Buckaroo handles the entire financial process, from registration to upgrade.

Payments go through Buckaroo and can be viewed real-time at all times. The payment software matches incoming payments to the correct subscriptions. The subscriber has the possibility to pay with credit card, PayPal, iDEAL, Bancontact, Sofort or direct debit.

What happens when the payment was not successful? This is directly visible. By using the credit management solution, subscribers can be reminded and an alternative payment request can be send.

Features

Subscription management
Register all subscription and pricing or installment plans. Also manage subscriptions for customer accounts in: starting, adjusting (e.g. pausing), or stopping a subscription.
Billing
