PayActiv, Inc.
I think it is well suited because it lets the employees know that the company cares, that we want them to be able to have financial stability, and by doing that we are providing a way for them to access their funds earlier.

Visa
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.

Visa
  • 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.

Cons
PayActiv, Inc.
  • I have no suggestions for improvement, it's never been a problem for my office staff and we have never had a complaint from the field staff, which is most of our employees.

Visa
  • 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

I think Pay Activ is the only tool really we need as a company since it has more than just early access to money but can provide other tools to help you in your financial situation

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
