    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.

    Skrill is my preferred way of doing money transactions abroad typically when I need a safe secured and efficient way of sending money overseas and the amount is low. Most other portals tend to charge a transfer fee for lower amounts but Skrill does not charge a transaction fee when I use the ACH Transfer even for lower amounts. For personal use, I have used the debit card to fuel transactions and it allows you the same facility as the debit card. If I need to complete the transaction within a day and want the money to be available in the receiving account overseas the same day, I prefer another portal that has the option of express service that Skrill does not offer.

    Pros
    PayPal
    • Braintree has excellent integration with the BigCommerce platform. The switch of our previous payment processing gateway to Braintree was very easy and only required a few clicks.
    • Tying into Braintree's BigCommerce integration, for company's like ours that are on the BigCommerce enterprise plan, Braintree's rates for BigCommerce enterprise customers are extremely competitive and saved us money.
    • Braintree has a pretty easy to use portal that can be accessed through the same login we use for PayPal which we are using in conjunction with Braintree with ease.
    • I've only had to call Braintree twice and my customer service issues were handled extremely quickly and easily.

    • It is a global payment processor that accepts payments from all around the world.
    • Because of the high security requirements for signing in, no one can readily access the account.

    Cons
    PayPal
    • Not a very good subscription management platform for a Saas business, but they make up for it on the API with others that are
    • Doesn't have a lot of additional features, but that's what you'd expect out of a payment processor
    • Very expensive per transaction, but the reality is that any processor who helps early stage companies accept online payments are expensive.

    • Skrill's UI can be bloated and slow sometimes, and overcomplicated
    • There are some issues with localization and language, some concepts didn't see to be translated properly
    • What an e-wallet is, is not super clear to potential users

    There's a huge cost in migrating payment providers, and we're very happy with Braintree so far.

    We ended up using Tipalti which seems to have solved our specific needs better, though it is more expensive.

    Usability
    PayPal
    As a product, functionality has been fine for us. In our experience, some issues during On Boarding but because we had a dedicated Account Manager assigned to us, these issues were dealt with. Now we are a customer, it feels like they have stopped caring about us or aren't interested in working with us to resolve any issues we have.

    Because it's simple to use, works well since we have first set it up and we never had any issues with it.

    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.

    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.

    I use different payment systems depending on the goal. Skrill is good when my contractor prefers this way of payment. Also, Skrill is a preferred payment option in many online services, which makes it easy to use. Also, Skrill issues a real plastic Visa card you can use like any bank card.

    • Simplified billing so we spend less time on it
    • Saved $20 a month or more when compared to alternatives that have a monthly charge.
    • It gives peace of mind because we know that any service we use in the future will likely integrate with Braintree

    • I can quickly deposit my international multi-currency account without making an expensive wire transfer, with no border restriction as long as I have the mobile app with me.
    • Skrill is very convenient for each transfer amount up to EURO 2,500, and EURO 15,000/monthly.
    • Possibility of hiring freelancers for my company with immediate payments.
