business growth — Working with a wide range of franchisees gives us perfect insight to provide tailored payment solutions to aid franchise growth in the UK.

How we work with you

As a franchised business, trading under the franchisor’s brand name, we are able to treat you as being one sub-section of a larger, established company. To you, this means no set-up costs, low monthly admin fees, very competitive SUN rates, and you would just pay us for the transactions you put through. Our aim is to help small businesses and franchises to function and expand.

As a franchisor, using Direct Debits will mean your payments from franchised outlets will be regular, correct and on time. Our online portal and central reporting suite will give you all the tools you need to monitor and analyse all payment data, and thus inform decisions around the franchise’s business and marketing strategy.

Franchise growth

Both the franchisor and the franchisee benefit from the extra speed and reliability of cash flow that our services bring.

Marketing support

We can help launch a partnership and, as suppliers of payment facilities across the franchise, incorporate your publicity into ours.

Secure data

As a Bacs Approved Bureau, we adhere to GDPR rules in managing all data, hold Cyber Essentials Plus certification an use measures like Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) to keep payment data safe.

Branded collections

Your brand identity is important, and your business name will appear on your customers’ statements, not your payment provider’s.

Having BFA supplier status gives London & Zurich exactly the insight into our industry they need to provide tailored payments solutions, branded collections and essential marketing assistance.
