Changing between direct debit and card

To change payment methods from direct debit to card or from card to direct debit, you will need to cancel the existing subscription and re-subscribe using a Beacon form.


Updating payment methods when someone has an existing membership

In order to update the payment method for a membership's subscription, first cancel the relevant subscription, then the member will need to sign up for a new membership, which will create a new membership record in Beacon. You can then merge those two memberships together.
