    CardConnect is a good option for payment capture, but getting less experienced stores up and running takes significant effort compared to other processors we use. This seems to be due to poor communication since there isn't a dedicated rep familiar with the use case like we have with other processors.

    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

    CardConnect does not solve problems or have managers or supervisors that exist do so. Voicemail box of the appointed representative remains full when you need to reach them. Representative will fail to read email if "lengthy". When you call for customer service you are skirted around from department to department, and specific questions are not answered.

    We are considering moving to stripe soon. We find their POS to be comparable but their online processing features are integrated with far more platforms.

    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
