**Rapidata Services is now handling all Institute of Fundraising membership direct
debits. As a result, from the first week of June, the Institute has taken ownership
of its direct debits, with the monies collected depositing directly into the its
bank account and the Institute of Fundraising’s name appearing on members bank statements.**

Rapidata has been working closely with the Institute of Fundraising for a number
of months and liaising with the Institute’s bank to secure its own direct debit 
facility. The change will enable the Institute to have greater control and access
to its data with enhanced reporting of membership data.

Scott Gray, Managing Director of Rapidata Services said: “It is fantastic that we
have been able to partner with the Institute of Fundraising and manage their membership
direct debits. It is so important for organisations to take control of their brand
and money collected, so I am very pleased that we have been able to establish this
facility with their bank”.

the Institute’s website using Rapidata’s edirect debit service.

Gray added that he though all voluntary sector organisations should set up an online
Paperless Direct Debit facility, adding “so I am glad to see the Institute adopting
this process.”
