Transaction data in GoCardless requires manual verification against Jobber, increasing audit risk

Customers in GoCardless and clients in Jobber drift out of sync, leading to outdated details on invoices, emails, and reports

Invoice and payment data is re-entered between GoCardless and Jobber manually, doubling the work and risking GST errors at month-end

Client engagement details in GoCardless and time-tracking data in Jobber do not align, making billing inaccurate

Reporting across GoCardless and Jobber requires painful manual exports and spreadsheet merges

How We Help

Connecting GoCardless (payments) with Jobber (industry tools) is one of the most requested integrations among Australian Professional Services and Financial Services businesses. This integration eliminates the manual transfer of contacts and invoices data, reducing errors and freeing up your team to focus on growth. On the technical side, GoCardless uses a REST + Webhook API, and Jobber authenticates via OAuth, which our team handles as part of the build.

Scalable Without Extra Headcount

As your data volume grows, the integration scales with you. No need to hire additional admin staff to keep GoCardless and Jobber in sync, even as your business doubles.

Amplify GoCardless Strengths

GoCardless excels because direct debit payments via bank-to-bank transfers cost significantly less than card payments, saving 50-80% on transaction fees. Connecting it to Jobber ensures that advantage flows through your entire workflow rather than staying siloed in one tool.

Custom-Built for Your Workflow

Unlike generic connectors, we build integrations tailored to how your business actually uses GoCardless and Jobber. Custom field mappings, business rules, and error handling included.

Unlock Jobber Value

Jobber stands out because client hub portal lets customers view quotes, approve work, pay invoices, and request new services online, reducing admin time. Integrating it with GoCardless means your team gets this benefit with complete, accurate data flowing in automatically.
