Support Scrimpr
Support my efforts making Scrimpr tools and guides with a monthly contribution via direct debit.
Scrimpr is independent and ad-light. Small monthly contributions keep the tools, comparisons and guides free for everyone.
Set Up a Direct Debit
New direct debits paused
We’re working on it
The direct debit setup is being rebuilt and isn’t accepting new direct debits right now. If you already have an active direct debit it will keep running as normal, and you can still manage it via the Stripe subscription portal or the cancellation form.
Want to be told when it’s back? Drop a note to hello@scrimpr.co.uk. In the meantime, the partner offers below are another way to support Scrimpr at no cost to you.
Prefer to support Scrimpr for free?
Signing up to any of these partner offers through Scrimpr's links earns the site a commission at no extra cost to you — and most come with a sign-up bonus for you too.
Frequently Asked Questions
Heads up: new direct debits are paused while the setup is being rebuilt. The answers below cover both existing subscribers and how it will work once new sign-ups reopen.
What is the Scrimpr Direct Debit?
A simple way to support Scrimpr's ongoing development. A small regular direct debit supports new content and tools, and helps keep everything on the site free.
How does it work?
Payments are processed securely through Stripe. When new sign-ups are open, the amount options are 50p, £1, £2, or a custom value, taken monthly from your bank account.
How much does it cost?
The options are 50p, £1, £2, or the amount you choose. Payment is taken monthly, and you can cancel at any time. New sign-ups are paused right now.
Can I set one up right now?
Not at the moment. The direct debit setup is being rebuilt and isn't accepting new direct debits.
How long does setup take when it's open?
The direct debit is set up within 3 working days of signing up. Your first payment then processes in around 5 business days after that.
How does it show on my bank statement?
Once the direct debit is active, it appears on your bank statement as "Scrimpr" or "Stripe" depending on your bank. This typically shows within a few days of the payment being taken.
Can I choose the frequency?
Not at the moment. Payments are taken monthly. Weekly or bi-weekly options may be added in the future.
Is my payment information secure?
Yes. Payments are processed through Stripe, a leading payment platform that complies with the highest standards of security and encryption. Bank details are entered on Stripe's own secure page and never touch Scrimpr's servers.
Is there a contract or long-term commitment?
No. There is no long-term commitment. You can support Scrimpr for as long or as short a period as you like, and cancel at any time.
How do I cancel my direct debit?
You can cancel via the Stripe subscription portal, use the cancellation form, or cancel directly through your bank.
