    Bluesnap admin usability is much higher than other processing gateways on the market. The integration and reporting is above average

    For basic users it is probably a good fit. For connecting it's API's are straightforward and most would find it an easy connection to be made. The site overall is just not designed well. When you try to look at transactions a portion of the information is cut of without a scroll bar being added to slide to the fields you would like to see. If you need to see the data on the screen you need to make some adjustments.

    • They have built the connections to multiple card providers so that a retailer does not need to build the code for each one separately.
    • The decision manager product catches and stops a lot of fraud from getting through and causing a large number or chargebacks.
    • They also connect to PayPal making it easy to add them to any website as a payment method.

    • fees- competitive, but budget for them
    • price transparency- it's hard to know exactly what you're being charged for. We are charged a small % of each incoming payment batch, so AR reconciliation is more difficult
    • implementation- significant time and expertise required to get everything up and running smoothly

    Merchant e solutions has a truly awful admin website and is clunky to use. There are almost no options for customization. Bluesnap allows configuration to fit our needs and a much better customer service experience.

    Payeezy does not provide fraud check facility and they provide JS based integration. Since client wants server side integration due to security and fraud check as well in place of using another third party for fraud. We went ahead with Cybersource
