### "Good product"

November 13, 2024

4.0

Good, I've seen as well how they have increased safety measures which makes it a more reliable product

Pros

Is very easy to use and sending money to Colombia is lightning fast!

Cons

Is a very basic product and only has a pre paid card. Expanding the portfolio will be nice

### "Great Exchange rates, on its way to a very competitive MVP"

November 13, 2024

4.0

I think it's been the best experience overall. I have used Wise, but it certainly isn't as good. I think Ontop should be more product-driven and open to the public.

Pros

The forex exchange rate is very competitive. The transfers are very efficient and fast.

Cons

The app is still on its way to be an MVP, so a lot is missing, and a lot of errors are being fixed every month

Issues with the provider. It had payments stuck in the banking system without knowledge of where they were. It took 6 months for the money to be returned to Wise... And they're still giving bad information on what happened

### "No customer service"

March 29, 2024

3.0

Bad. There's no number or email to reach out to in case you have a situation with the app... and they handle your money!

Pros

Supposed to be a fast payment app, but I haven't received my money and can't get in touch with support. I can't even log in to my account. Ridiculous.

Cons

They don't have a customer support team.

### "Ontop review"

November 12, 2024

4.0

It is a good payment management platform, it helps your contractors get paid through a digital wallet, it should improve its customer service but other than that, it has good functionality.

Pros

I like the way it can automate payment for the contractors

Cons

The amount of inconveniences we had at the time of implementation, there were many people with problems with the initial registration.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Ontop

They offer a much simpler alternative, we only need to pay contractors.

### "A Simple and Reliable Way to Get Paid and Manage Global Payments"

December 25, 2025

5.0

Overall, it has been a good experience. I mainly use Ontop to receive my paycheck, transfer money when needed, and pay for everyday expenses using the Visa card, which makes managing my funds straightforward and convenient.

Pros

I really value how simple and user-friendly Ontop is. Its intuitive interface streamlines onboarding, contract creation, and handling international payments, often requiring very little setup. I also find the digital wallet and the linked Visa card especially convenient for receiving and using funds worldwide.

Cons

There was nothing in particular that stood out to me. However, I think adding support for Apple Pay and Google Wallet would be a nice improvement.

### "A Seamless Global Payout Solution"

October 9, 2025

5.0

Ontop completely eliminates the stress and administrative overhead associated with global contractor and employee payouts. Before Ontop, managing compliance, different currencies, and timely payments across various geographies was a slow, expensive, and high-risk process. Now, we use the platform to manage our entire international workforce payroll. It ensures we are compliant everywhere we operate and that our contractors are paid accurately and on time, every time. This has drastically improved our efficiency and helped us scale our global talent acquisition without the usual payment headaches.

Pros

The Ease of Use and Ease of Implementation are what truly set Ontop apart. Getting set up was remarkably fast and straightforward, much quicker than other international payment systems I've used. For day-to-day work, the platform is incredibly intuitive—I don't have to spend time troubleshooting or explaining complex processes to new users. Since I use it frequently (multiple times per week), this high level of simplicity is essential. The process for making global payouts is fluid, and the transparency in fees and exchange rates is also a major plus. Finally, the Customer Support team is responsive and highly knowledgeable, which has been extremely helpful when dealing with niche international compliance questions.

Cons

While the platform offers a solid number of features for core global payments and compliance, I would love to see a more robust set of advanced reporting and analytics tools built directly into the dashboard. Right now, I sometimes have to pull data and analyze it externally to get the deep insights I need. Also, the Ease of Integration with a few of our legacy financial tools could be slightly smoother. While the API is functional and their team helps, a broader array of out-of-the-box, no-code integrations would save us a bit of development time. These are minor things, but they'd take the product from great to exceptional.

### "A Seamless Solution for Global Hiring & Payments"

November 18, 2025

5.0

Pros

Ontop makes global hiring and payments simple. The platform is intuitive, onboarding is fast, and compliance is handled seamlessly. The support team is responsive and genuinely committed to helping customers succeed.

Cons

Nothing major. As the platform continues to grow, some internal processes and features could be streamlined to move even faster, but the team is always improving and open to feedback.

### "Good experience"

October 21, 2025

5.0

Really good experience. I like the app, I can send money to different accounts and also pay my bills if it is available for my country.

Pros

“Easy experience, great benefits with the subscription, and a really good app. When I had the physical debit card, I was able to use it all around the world.

Cons

Nothing to say, my experience has been good. I’d probably suggest providing a physical debit card for people who live in Europe or enabling Apple Pay integration.

November 13, 2024

Is a great platform, the cashback is good and the Visa card is perfect to buy anywhere.

Pros

How easy is to receive and transfer money from the platform to my local bank account.

Cons

I can just receive money from ontop. My last name has Ñ on it and the credit card has it written exactly the same, it makes some transactions impossible to to process.

### "Good and convenient "

November 13, 2024

5.0

I like it, minor problems and customer service is not bad

Pros

I can save my money in dollars and use it anywhere and any time with the debit card, which is very useful and no extra fees are charged. Also it's great that transfers are done in just minutes to any bank account

Cons

The customer service can take a while to fix issues and bugs. Also it would be wonderful if it was an open platform to anyone that wants to use it, not only for payroll and companies.

### "Never pay on time"

July 9, 2024

1.0

Awful, consistently on a monthly basis I spend hours in a uselles automated chat

Pros

They allow transfer to a crypto account, although with high fees

Cons

They systematically pay late. This breaks my paymnt chain. UNRELIABLE They made me sign a contract in which they promised to pay on the eighth day but they never do. They claim that it is my company's problem, even though I send them the receipts showing that my company made the transfer within the five working days. They have a lousy customer service, totally automated and useless in which they answer over and over again the same useless stupidity for those who have a problem as a customer. Unfortunately my company chose them as a provider but for any Start Up or company that wants a global digital payments service, avoid like the plague! Go to Rippling, Deel or Patriot
