Choosing a Payments Provider

Choosing a payments provider is a decision only you can make – but it can certainly be a daunting choice at times, with so many options to choose from. So, how do you decide?

Reputation

Research the provider online. Especially on sites such as TrustPilot. What are people saying? Can the provider be trusted? Are they well-established?

Integration

Do they have an affordable integration for the platform you're using? Is it tested and effective?

Cost

Compare their pricing. Is it reasonable? Check for hidden and/or recurring fees.
