Pros / Cons
  • Features like subscriptions/billing, marketplace / platform support (via Connect), fraud-detection tools, payout scheduling, and dashboard analytics level it up beyond a simple payment gateway.
  • Stripe caused me to create over 250 checkout pages on my website and didn’t tell me that I had to click a setting on their website so that I would receive notifications that a sale was made.

  • Mamy functions available so overall great tool for small business or business that needs to accept simple payments or bookings.
  • No way out of 12 month subscription, even when Sumup isn't upholding their side of the contract
