We’ve been facing frequent transaction failures and poor support.
I’m searching for a dependable solution that processes payments smoothly. What options are out there that actually work well without causing headaches?
Stripe works well for most apps and is easy.
Used Square for two different apps and honestly surprised how smooth it runs. Their fraud protection caught way more sketchy transactions than our previous setup.
The SDK integration took maybe half a day and their dashboard makes it easy to spot issues. Had maybe 3-4 support tickets over 18 months and they actually responded fast.
One thing - their fees are slightly higher but the reliability made up for it. Way fewer angry users complaining about failed payments.
PayPal direct works fine too. Simple setup and users trust it already.
Worldpay’s been solid across multiple app launches. Better approval rates than most competitors and handles international cards without random declines.
Reporting’s clean - easy to spot patterns when payments act up. Takes a week for approval but worth it if you want something that actually works.
Braintree crushes mobile payments compared to other processors. Since PayPal owns them, you’re getting rock-solid infrastructure and way fewer declines on iOS. Most transaction failures? Usually crappy fraud detection or payment flows that haven’t been updated in ages. Their SDK stays current and the dispute handling is a real time-saver. Need something else? Adyen’s great for high volume but expect a longer setup process.
