Their Pitch
Online and in-person payments – built for businesses of every size.
Our Take
It's a European payment gateway that actually gets local payment methods right. You know, the stuff like iDEAL that Europeans actually want to use.
Deep Dive & Reality Check
Used For
- +**Your Dutch customers see only credit cards and bounce** → Add iDEAL and Bancontact, watch conversion rates jump because people can pay how they want
- +**You're manually calculating marketplace splits and sending 47 PayPal transfers** → Automated splits send sellers their 90% and you keep 10% without touching anything
- +**Failed transactions disappear into the void** → Second chance emails automatically retry failed payments and recover money you'd have lost
- +Creates payment links for custom requests - no need to build a checkout page for one-off invoices
- +Handles subscriptions and recurring billing without the complexity of enterprise solutions
Best For
- >Your European customers abandon checkout because you only have Visa and PayPal
- >Running a marketplace and manually splitting payments is eating your weekends
- >Tried Stripe but the fees are killing you and you need better EU support
Not For
- -US-focused businesses - this is built for Europe and you'll miss ACH and other American payment methods
- -High-volume enterprises doing €5M+ monthly - you'll outgrow the features and need something more robust
- -Solo freelancers with tiny transaction volumes - the per-transaction fees add up when you're not doing much volume
Pairs With
- *Shopify (where most people install the plugin in 15 minutes and start accepting European payments)
- *Magento (to automate refunds that used to take 2 hours per week down to 10 minutes)
- *WordPress (via Gravity Forms for donation pages and workshop payments)
- *Sharetribe (for marketplace payment splits that eliminate 5 hours of weekly admin work)
- *Google Analytics (to track which payment methods actually convert and which ones are dead weight)
The Catch
- !Third-party integrations are rough - users rate them 1.0/5 and you'll spend extra dev time fixing broken checkout flows
- !Europe-heavy focus means limited global expansion - great for EU, weak everywhere else
- !Webhooks can be finicky and need custom retry logic or failed payments pile up in your system
Bottom Line
The payment gateway that speaks European - handles all those local methods like iDEAL and Bancontact that make your conversion rates not suck.
