    We accept payment through Direct Debit (via GoCardless) or credit card (via Elavon, formerly known as Opayo /SagePay). You will get a choice once you reach the end of the purchase process.

    If you wish to pay by BACS/internet banking transfer you can find Appeal Finder's account details on the proforma invoice (see FAQ 4). With BACS payments we have to manually update the system to give you access so please email info@appealfinder.co.uk once you have processed the payment to ensure your account becomes live as quickly as possible.
