In today’s increasingly digital world, ensuring the financial wellbeing of individuals in care, whilst maintaining digital inclusion, has never been more important. E-commerce sales are expected to grow 8.8% in 2024, leading to less public reliance on in-person services. As a result, there is an increased reliance on online services (such as digital subscriptions) for everyday errands and entertainment.
Traditional methods of managing finances for care receivers often present challenges in the modern world. Typical cash handouts offer no possibility for care receivers to use their funds for online subscriptions. This digital exclusion means that care receivers often miss out on enriching services such as Amazon Prime, Netflix or Just Eat.
A secure and user-friendly platform to make periodic payments to online services is here. The new Cleva digital subscription feature empowers care receivers in your local authority, taking control of their finances and enjoying the benefits of modern technology.
How Does It Work?
Digital subscriptions are available for care receivers who have their own Cleva card. Most commonly within the Local Authority sectors, these care receivers have capacity to independently spend with their own Cleva account. Better yet, Cleva’s Digital Subscriptions feature allows your organisations to apply access on a per-user basis, meaning permissions on each independent Cleva card can be adjusted accordingly for each client’s dependancies.
Imagine your independent client, Alice, wants to subscribe to a streaming service. With the new Cleva digital subscriptions feature, you can easily set up her Cleva card to make recurring payments. It’s a simple process that involves a few steps:
- Link the Card: Ensure Alice’s Cleva card is the only card linked to her specific wallet within the Cleva system. (All Cleva clients receive training on our management system).
- Enable Subscriptions: You’ll need to enable the subscription feature for her card through the Cleva system. This is a one-time setup.
- Secure Payments: Once enabled, Alice can use her Cleva card to make recurring payments to her chosen subscription service.
