### "Online Payments In Your Hand With A Click"

July 20, 2021

5.0

I have integrated Payu with my store and wordpress website. During covid it has helped me alot. Through it we able to make our business online. Due to emi options, pay later options, credit card payment facilities our business grew with demands. Through various payment methods we able to attract customers with offers. Payments Settles on time and never given any issue.

Pros

I am using this software since a long time. I liked it's easy onboarding process and timing. With your registration their sales team helps a lot. This is a payment solution with lots of payment methods. Through it we can accept both domestic and international payments from our customers. With mobile payment feature it helps customers to pay in payu payment page without leaving it. It is easy to integrate with e-commerce stores. With Payu we can build business website with built-in payment gateway by registering and uploading products. We can integrate with our websites, mobile apps, stores like Shopify, wordpress and many more without any coding. We can accept payments through invoices, links,QR codes, Excel sheets etc. We can setup recurring or subscription plans to accept payments weekly or monthly or yearly from our customers with Payu. Payments get settled in 2 days to payment. It is best for small and medium businesses to go digital. It is PSI DCC certified where customers card details are safe and secure. Payments are also secured by it's servers. Payu provides a smooth payment option to customers.

Cons

For small transactions, transaction fee doesn't look a big issue. But during bulk payments or high value payments it sucks to sellers as 2% in that case is a big thing. Apart that I don't hate anything as it has given best experiences in my time.

### "Time consuming onboarding with no clear outcome"

January 29, 2026

1.0

My experience with PayU was frustrating and time consuming. I complied with all requested requirements including adding legal name and registered address on the website, publishing all mandatory policy pages, and listing multiple genuinely different digital products. Despite this, the onboarding process involved repeated vague messages and unclear wording that led to unnecessary back and forth. After investing significant time making changes, my application was ultimately rejected under Line of Business rejection without a clear explanation or guidance. The issue was not rejection itself, but the lack of transparency and inefficient handling throughout the process. For individual sellers of legitimate digital products, this onboarding experience is discouraging and unpredictable.

Pros

Not a single thing. They are rude, disrespectful, time wasters, energy drainers, no ethics, just stalling the work.

Cons

Extremely unclear onboarding requirements, poor communication, repeated clarification requests, and eventual rejection without a clear actionable explanation.

### "PayU is safest payment gateway for collect online payments from various option"

March 8, 2022

4.0

My overall experience with PayU was really good. When required any support I always got appropriate help from their support them their team was really helpful.

Pros

Payment gateway plays a big and important role when we take any payment from our website customer always think about their data was safe and secure. With PayU not required to take any tension about data safety, it's an amazing platform. Also, PayU takes a little bit of processing charge for using their gateway it's a smaller percentage than another gateway. In a transparent way, we easily track payment collection history and settlement related information also it's automatically sending us our tax invoice.

Cons

We use multiple payments options under our one gateway this thing improves the rate of sales. And PayU always settles our money in our registered account on time.

### "Avarage payment gateway"

July 21, 2022

3.0

Overall we were not happy with it and eventually shifted to other payment processor. I'm sure they have evolved over the time.

Pros

We had initially integrated Citrus Pay in our accounting software (ProfitBooks) to accept payments. Later, it was acquired by PayU. Basica functionality of accepting payments from credit/debit card and netbanking was there but it lacked the advance options.

Cons

User interface was not upto the mark and payment methods were limited. They still don't have subscription payments.

### "Pasarela de pagos Payu"

October 17, 2022

4.0

Para mi el servicio es todo y por eso no la recomiendo. Es una pasarela de pagos muy buena y grande pero el servicio fatal.

Pros

Es una pasarela fácil de utilizar y no pone mucho problema para abrir la cuenta y recibe pagos sin problema de casi todos los países de Latam.

Cons

El servicio es pésimo, de hecho esto me hizo migrar a otras pasarelas de pago ya que cuando tienes un problema es un caos el servicio al cliente. Así mismo, es de las pocas pasarelas que no tienen un link de pago abierto y esto resulta bastante útil para no tener que generar un link cada vez que un cliente va a realizar un pago.

### "No tiene servicio de postventa."

February 8, 2023

1.0

No entiendo por qué, ante la imposibilidad de retirar fondos, un día simplemente me cerraron la cuenta. No dan confinza, y temo que se queden con mi dinero, además de dejarme sin sistema de pago en mi negocio sin previo aviso.

Pros

Nada, es un mal software. No es amistoso en su uso, no se actualiza, es lento, tiene una mapa interfaz, y no da opciones efectivas.

Cons

La atención al cliente. No dan solucuiones. Solo atienden a traves de respuestas lentas, ineficientes y automatizadas. Digo esto despues de intenetar hablar con alguien durante meses, sin lograrlo.

May 2, 2021

It is a good solution and I would recommend it. It can take some time to finish a transaction.

Pros

It is a good service that helps you pay different vendors. It seems very secure and integrates into different accounts to make paying a lot easier.

Cons

Using it the first few times was confusing and not intuitive. It also tends to be slow on the confirmation, creating some delays.

### "Best Payment Gateway for E-Commerce Stores"

December 7, 2022

5.0

We have been using PayU Payment Gateway since 2 years for more than 10 of our e-commerce clients and it has been a great journey with PayU. The payment success rate is very high and availability of multiple payment option is also a great feature. We can create payment links and send the payment notification to our clients directly from the PayU dashboard. The support team of PayU is also there to help you out in case of any payment failure.

Pros

PayU is one of the best payment gateway systems which is available in the market. There are multiple payment options in this system which offers great flexibility to both customers and business owners in payment processing. The integration of PayU with different shopping platforms like WooCommerce & Shopify is too easy as it could be achieved through plugins. The dashboard of PayU is also an important highlight as it showcases a quick view of recent payments and total statistics. The support team of PayU is also very quick in responding to queries.

Cons

The offerings of PayU Payment Gateway are so great that there is not much to dislike about it but yes there are few features which are missing like custom payment pages and there are very less form fields while creating payment links. The user interface also needs an overhaul to make it more user-friendly.

Pros

Me agrada ya que es de fácil uso, tiene varios métodos de pago, en el cual no te encontraras limitada, a nivel internacional acepta tarjeta de varios países, es una plataforma latina y el soporte es en español.

No acepta todos las tarjetas de los países internacionales, y te exigen un mínimo de ingreso que para una pequeña empresa es demasiado.

November 16, 2022

It has been great. I strongly recommend every e-commerce brand try it.

Pros

Payu offers tons of payment options - credit card, debit card, UPI, and even buy now, pay later. It processes the payments easily and remits the same within 1-2 days. There is no minimum amount for remittance.

Cons

I haven\`t come across any issues with this software yet. It works perfectly and is far better than many other payment providers.

### "Good tool for receiving online payments"

June 7, 2021

5.0

Since we use this platform it is much easier to process payments from our customers, we can receive payments online without any problem, they issue payments on time on the corresponding dates. The experience has been really good.

Pros

This platform allows me to receive payments in my online store and they automatically send it to my bank account, I like that it has branches in many parts of the world, it is a great advantage for us who have presence in multiple countries, because I can receive payments in different local currencies.

Cons

I think the problem with this platform is the entry barrier, because they require a minimum of sales to be able to apply to use their software, in our case we already had several years using 2checkout and migrating to this platform was easy, but people who are starting out cannot apply to this company.

Pros

Lo que mas me gusta que es una plataforma que nos permite recibir pagos nacionales e internacionales desde diferentes lugares aceptando casi cualquier medio de pago, sea tarjetas de crédito, debito, pagos por transferencia entre otros

Cons

Lo que no me gusta y desde el principio lo mencione a la persona que nos asesoro, es que la plataforma para adquirir esta pasarela es que te solicita que tus ingresos mensuales sean un monto elevado muy especifico, si eres una tienda que apenas esta empezando ni si quiera te consideran

### "A payment gateway which will get the job done"

March 11, 2022

5.0

Its been a decent experience, and it seems to get the job done. Have recommended it for the business of some of my friends.

Pros

It charges a very low transactional fee of about 2%. This allows us to avoid paying an upfront fee for using this gateway. It also has a very intuitive platform UI.

Cons

Their customer service is terrible and they take over a week to get back to you, that too with generic advice. The payment gateway also fails about 40% of the time.
