PaySimple is a versatile electronic payment collection tool that businesses rely on for a range of payment processing needs. Users have found value in its e-commerce and payment processing features, enabling them to effortlessly send out recurring invoices and collect payments with minimal customer interaction. This is particularly useful for businesses that require monthly recurring payments from retainer clients, as well as for one-off and yearly invoices. The software's payment portal feature has also been appreciated by users, providing a convenient solution for credit card payments, especially when clients prefer this method. Additionally, PaySimple offers customizable reporting features that allow businesses to track revenue, share employee revenue, and incentivize and provide bonuses - all of which have received positive feedback from users.

However, some users have encountered challenges with PaySimple. There have been instances where the processor abruptly shut down their CPA business and held funds for 180 days without any appeals or review process, which understandably caused frustration. Another concern raised by users is the monthly non-PCI compliance fee, which prompted a shift to an alternative payment software offered by a bank in one case.

Despite these challenges, PaySimple continues to be recommended by users for various use cases. For instance, it is highly recommended for schools looking for an online tuition payment solution that integrates seamlessly with Gradelink. Parents appreciate the convenience of making online payments without having to log into PaySimple separately. ACH payments are preferred by customers for services and subscriptions, as it offers ease of access and reduces administrative work compared to credit card payments. Overall, PaySimple stands as a reliable standalone solution for handling multiple billing needs such as point of sale transactions, recurring billing, and daily debits across a network of businesses.

I would have to say 3 out of 10. But I think that if you do alot of transactions then stay away. In my experience, if you do 100 transactions or less then it doesnt really matter. The easy of the software is nice but, in my experience, all companies have that.

PaySimple has made it next to impossible to become PCI compliant unless we purchased a separate computer for the sole purpose of invoicing. We switched to Chase Bank who does not store sensitive info on our computers allowing us to accept credit cards and still remain PCI compliant. Our money is available much faster by not using the 3rd party. Additionally, a simple company name change required more paperwork than closing the account and setting up a new one even when the same bank account was going to be used. This was the primary reason to shop around. We happily contacted Chase Bank and now save $125 a month and receive access to our funds faster. I cannot believe I stayed with PaySimple as long as I did. It's amazing anyone would jump through the hoops of PCI compliance when the technology exists to keep sensitive information off your small business computers. If this review stops anyone from paying those monthly fees, the time was well worth it! PaySimple, requires business owners to fill out forms that make no sense in laymens terms. Chase Bank fills them all in for you and highlights the areas that need to be signed and initialed. PaySimple, charges excessive fees and in my opinion has very emotional customer service reps. Chase Bank, was eager to help and get things rolling so you can focus on your business. I would never recommend PaySimple.

Well suited to communicate with users and managers.
Well suited to provide technical assistance.
Less able to clarify security measures that negatively impact small businesses while it grows.
And excellent starting place for a new business.

We're a marketing agency and it's worked perfectly for our recurring payment retainers (same amount each month).

It would also work well for a company with a set product line up or a company that wants a more traditional "store" setup.

Great if you have a high volume of transactions on a regular basis. Even better if all your transactions occur on the same day of the month because you'll save money on the deposit fee (batch fee). Also good if you want a really really simple UI and good support. Not good if you want to link a payment solution to your retail website for an online shopping cart or if you want a massive POS system.

Pay Simple is great for any business that takes ACH payments - especially recurring ones. If it's for more of a membership type program, I would think this is less appropriate. It's a great product that gets the job done. While some aspects may be a little confusing to navigate when making changes, their Customer Support really brings everything together. They are very quick to respond, so if you are left wondering how to accomplish something within the portal, you aren't left wondering for long.

PaySimple is extremely well suited if you run payments and set up payment profiles through an online gateway. I don't believe it is suited for API integrations between their merchants and your own internal software or CRM solutions.
