We use GoCardless to process payments on our website. Rather than using a credit or debit card, GoCardless will ask you to authorise payment from your bank account. This is a one off payment, and we will not store your bank account details. This approach involves much lower transaction fees, so we are able to pay artists and workshop facilitators more generously.
