CardConnect vs Mercado Pago: Which is a better fit?

In general, the service and its payment processing platform are perfect. I think it is a very good alternative for small and large entrepreneurs since your system and finances are secure.

I have had countless promises and been told countless times it is sorted out. But the emails keep going to the wrong person and I keep getting the most horrible emails and threats from them.

CardConnect offers competitive rates and their cardpointe and copilot portals work great. There is a ton of functionality for useful reporting.

The contract for Cardconnect/Fiserv/cardclover/cardpointe/merchantservices is unclear, unethical, and nonconsensual.

So far CardConnect has been great. Their portals is easy to use and they have clean UI.

Usually, I am wonderful to deal with, but their policies are so ridiculous and unethical that I was an unfortunate pain to their employees and kept apologizing.

SENSITIVE CONTENT] has been a great help getting me on this product and we process a lot of cards without too much issue. We even can do WEX and Voyager payments.

I urge others to steer clear of Card Connect and to promptly report any instances of fraud perpetrated by them.

The only bad thing I see in this application is that your payment is reflected 30 days from you from the sales.

If you make these adjustments, for me it becomes perfect. I like paying for essential services through it, and I also really like the ease of shopping online.

A negative point of the Mercado Pago account is its usage limit, which is not very high. Spending limit per day (withdrawals, payment of bills and general expenses on the card).

The ease of generating forms of payment for my clients and the ease that the client has to make the payment helps a lot in the day to day.

I don't like the automatic debit option on the card bill, it leaves me with no options.

What I like most about the app is the sales confirmation function, with the customer confirming receipt of the product and so we all have a secure sale for both sides.

The way to configure the payment methods sometimes leaves us confused, but the simulation gives a direction on how to do it.
