Worldpay from FIS vs. SumUp

Vantiv is excellent for companies that need to be able to accept credit cards and want to keep accurate reports. However, if you ever need to contact customer service or your account rep, be prepared to be extremely frustrated. Vantiv recently merged with another company, and we are having a very difficult time getting information from our account manager about how to access out account now.

It works very well because the card reader can be easily carried in my bag or the event box that we take to exhibitions. It connects quickly and easily to my phone and we've never had any issues with taking the actual payments. Funds are then transferred to our bank account very quickly. I can't think of any circumstances where it wouldn't work well for us as I haven't experienced any!

• It has broad support for networks and software solution.

• In my experience, Some of the WORST tech support/customer service I've ever experienced
• Two of the last four years, gift cards crashed for multiple days during our Black Friday sale
• Duplicate charges
• Fraud controls are weak and (for gift cards) cost extra for dubious protection
• It took them over a month (and constant badgering) to give us a copy of our contract
• The system crashes quite a bit, leaving our locations without any ability to charge customers
• I dread having to deal with WorldPay, yet have to on a daily, if not weekly, basis

• The ability to add categories within a category.

As long as Vantiv continues to improve and we can get better responses from customer service, we will likely continue to use Vantiv. However, if customer service declines, we will likely look for something else

Easy! Easy! Easy!

Many customer support employees of Vantiv do not seem to know much about the Vantiv website. I have been transferred around to as many as four different people to get an answer to what I thought was a simple question. I am not sure if it would be possible to receive adequate support for a more complex issue.

ANYONE would be better than Worldpay. My parent company requires its use. Otherwise, I would have run away screaming a long time ago.

I particularly wanted a reader that had a screen (so the customer could see the amount being paid) and one that offered chip and pin entry as well as contactless. Some of the other providers I looked at didn't have those features. I compared the apps also and SumUp's app offered the nicest, and most easy-to-use, overall experience.

Incentivized

• Positive- More clients are enticed to use World Pay when they hear the benefits.
• Negative- Customer service lacks so our clients tend to complain about that.
• Negative- Rates can be a little high depending if client is currently using a local bank.

Incentivized

• Satisfactory
• High approval
• Low risk of fraud
