Braintree, a PayPal service vs. Razorpay Payment Gateway

Braintree is a lower cost alternative to many of the options business owners have through their bank. However, they will need to be techy or be working with a developer to set up. The setup and backend isn't as user friendly as alternatives. Braintree is a great option if you'll need to manually type in credit card details. Banks will sometimes charge a lot more for that option. The manual option is nice if your clients aren't as tech savvy and prefer to pay over the phone than to pay on your website.

According to my experience, it is best for all types of businesses. You can integrate with your blog, and website easily in some simple steps. You can accept payments through payment pages, and links where you can set expiry dates. When a customer finds various payment methods, he/she will use your services again and again, which will grow your business. It automatically records payments, and in case of payment failures, you can set up an auto refund without any hassle. But when it comes to customer support, their response time is long, and they mostly create tickets via live chat. You can set instant settlement, but you have to pay an extra fee for that.

Their support is a joke. There's nothing "supportive" about them. Every time I call in with an issue no one has an answer or even a recommendation. I am put on hold and no one ever comes back. It's time to find another processor.

It is simple for a developer to do.

Braintree is better at handling international payments and supporting a variety of payment methods that can all be configured from the same dashboard. Braintree supports PayPal, Venmo, Apple Pay, Google Pay, etc. in addition to simply credit cards like Stripe. Braintree has a vault of existing user payment methods so the user doesn't have to re-enter their information each time.

Easy to set up, and integration happens with simple steps. Various payment options. Easy to export reports. Instant payment notification and updates on dashboard. Useful for individuals, SMEs, and companies. Adding creative features from time to time for more improvement. The support team is responsive among other tools like Paytm, Google Pay, and Stripe. Amazon Pay is best when it comes to charges, but it has missing payment methods of Paylater apps, EMI apps. If it reduces its flat 2% charge, then it will trend at top.
