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.

We used PaySimple to ACH debit customer funds on a daily basis. We were doing close to 1000 per month in debits. After years of slowly raising my fees, I realized I was paying over $3000 more per year from when I started with new fees they came up with. After transferring all of my accounts except 5 to a new processor they just terminated me today. The software is very good but, in my opinion, their slimy tactics and nonesense termination will leave a bad taste in your mouth. Just to give you an idea I went from $800 per month in fees down to $140 per month. I think that is insane.

Processor shut my CPA business down and is holding funds for 180 days with no appeals, review or anything. They will not get any chargebacks from us as we carefully vet & get documentation for customers, get them to sign authorization forms, check IDs etc. but they don't care.

We used PaySimple until recently to invoice customers for our property inspection company. PaySimple charges a monthly non-PCI compliance fee to their users unless an entire laptop with restricted access is used. For most small businesses, having a separate laptop just for creating invoices is simply a waste of money. We now save $125 a month simply by switching to our bank's payment software which is PCI compliant by not allowing us to create invoices while not storing information on our computers. To avoid any more non-compliance fees, we canceled our service. In my experience, they immediately locked us out of our records and now we cannot access our recent invoices to make sure all recent invoices have been paid. By restricting us access to collect payment on our last invoices we lost what could be thousands of dollars.

We use PaySimple across the whole businesses for electronic payment collection. I initially added it because we needed a simple, automated solution for sending out yearly recurring invoices and collecting payments with minimal customer interaction. We're not using the electronic invoicing feature any more but rely almost entirely on the e-commerce and payment processing features for collecting payments. We set up monthly recurring payments for our retainer clients and use the payment portal feature to collect one-off and yearly invoices.

Schools want parents to be able to pay tuition online. I recommend them to get a PaySimple account which has a free integration with Gradelink. This allows parents to log into Gradelink and make online payments from within the app. Parents don't need to log into paysimple.com (or even know the company name) to make a payment.

We offer a multitude of services and subscriptions to our client base. Recurring credit card transactions are not always the best payment option for a client as credit cards can expire, get lost, stolen, etc and can require a lot of administrative work to contact the customer to gather new credit card information, recharge the declined transaction, and update all of their information for the different services they are charged for.

Using ACH to charge for our services and subscriptions is an option that our customers really appreciate. It is easy for them to access and provide and they do not have to worry about keeping up with it like they would a credit card.

We use PaySimple for most of our billing related needs. PaySimple does offer an integrated calendar scheduling feature called BookSimple that we have not implemented. What I appreciate about PaySimple is how easy it is to set up and edit a payment schedule as well as the features available for customized reporting necessary for revenue tracking, employee revenue sharing, incentives, and bonuses.
