Payment Methods

The Payment Methods section allows Business Account owners and admins to securely manage how campaigns, subscriptions, and top-ups are billed.

Overview

Each Business Account must have at least one active payment method. The current default method is clearly marked, and all charges (such as subscription renewals or auto top-ups) are processed using this default method.

Supported payment options:

• Credit or Debit Card (via Stripe)
• SEPA Direct Debit (via GoCardless)
• PayPal (via PayPal)

Adding a Payment Method

To add a new payment method:

1. Click Add next to your preferred method (Card, SEPA, or PayPal).
2. You will be redirected to the respective payment provider’s secure page:

• Stripe for cards
• GoCardless for SEPA
• PayPal for PayPal accounts

3. Follow the provider’s instructions to complete setup.

Once completed, the new method appears in your list of available payment options.

Note: Ctrl+A and Localyzer never store payment data directly. All details are handled and stored securely by the payment provider.

Setting the Default Payment Method

You can have multiple payment methods but only one default.

• To change your default, click Make default on the desired method.
• The new default will be used automatically for all future billing events.

Removing a Payment Method

You can delete any payment method that is not set as default. However, your Business Account must always have at least one active payment method.

If you attempt to remove your only payment method:

• The account’s remaining credit will continue to be used for campaigns.
• Once credit reaches zero, your subscriptions will stop, and active campaigns will be paused.

Important Notes

• At least one payment method must always be active.
• Removing all payment methods will interrupt ongoing services once the balance is depleted.
• All payment processing is fully secure and handled by third-party gateways — Ctrl+A never accesses or stores card or bank details.

Properly maintaining your payment methods ensures continuous operation of your campaigns and subscriptions without interruptions.
