I love Fivestars because it's SO easy to use. All of my favorite places have fivestars at checkout and it's so easy to enter your phone number linked to your account.
Somewhat pricey for a small business. Some customers complain about losing reward points due to lack of notifications.
It gives us great and immediate access to our best and most loyal customers. The automated system does a great job of creating return business.
The app is little confused and sometimes in my device lagged.
I like the fact that SumUp makes it easy for small business to accept card payments and also allows for the creation of a basic website which is perfect for small craft businesses like mind.
Sometimes it can be difficult to reach customer support and the chatbot is useless.
I enjoy this app the service is amazing and I complete trust this app it has been a big help.
One thing I do dislike about this app is that I am not able to link a new business. When I sign into another device it does not transfer my coupons over to my new account.
Net is a very reliable and secured platform. The platform is PCI compliant and uses advanced security measures to protect our customers data and ensure secure transactions.
Trying to set up and account and integrations is worse than pulling teeth on a toddler. The amount of fees for transactions is RIDICULOUS.
That it's super easy to use, and has been extremely reliable. When dealing with your customers money, thats of the upmost importance.
An awful, confusing journey of hoops to jump through.
Authorize.net features easy to use and very user friendly software. The program has awesome search features, easy to access reporting and awesome fraud protection and filters in place.
I'm not sure if it's coincidental or not, but a few people's cards got fraudulent notifications just after making a donation through the site.
The functionality of authorize.net is efficient. Its reliability makes it a wonderful tool for payment processing.
There is no text to pay feature. Right now we can only email invoices.
Michael: Hi, this is Michael I'm president of a tour company, I give FiveStars four stars. For more reviews like this click down below. Before I found FiveStars I was using Square, Square Payments, as my onsite payment processor, and it worked okay, I thought it was a little bit limited in its functionality, but the one thing I didn't like about it is you it didn't have a rewards or a promotional aspect to it. I chose FiveStars basically because I saw the great opportunity in marketing directly to my customers, gathering phone numbers, and setting up a reward/marketing promotion program with FiveStars that I couldn't ease with my previous application. It was real easy to onboard FiveStars, the websites really good, the apps really intuitive, and they also have really good support available on the website, so I really didn't have any problem onboarding. I think it'd be easy for anybody. I would recommend anybody considering FiveStars to go ahead and give it a try, it's risk free, and it's just really an invaluable tool as far as gaining customer phone numbers and emails, and it's a great marketing tool for a small business, basically.
Brittany: My name is Brittany. I am the director of client success. I give authorize.net five out of five stars. And for more reviews, click below. Previously, for our clients, we were using the WooCommerce setup for eCommerce for our clients using their payment portal. And then, we switched to authorize.net because it was a lot safer for our customers' payment processing. We chose authorize.net because it is very safe for our customers to submit payments on an eCommerce platform. And it also gives them options for payment, whether it's different types of credit card or PayPal. Getting started with authorize.net was very easy. They provided us instructions to place the API code on the site and then also gave us a sandbox for testing to make sure everything was set and ready to go before making it live on our clients' sites. I would recommend authorize.net because, once again, it's super safe for the client processing, and very easy to implement, and gives the customers lots of options, so you don't have them bouncing out at the checkout cart.
