Slow Payments, Convoluted Explanations for Account Use

Comments: Overall, Authorize.net has some benefits like customer trust and fraud prevention and if you are good at code, it might be great for you. Otherwise it seems a little outdated and complicated to set up and use beyond their automated features.

Pros:

I do like that Authorize.net is pretty widespread in its use, and that I feel I can implement it in a variety of mediums including SuiteDash CRM and Payments, my website, etc. It is rather versatile in that sense and allows for customization or more simplicity if needed.

Cons:

If you are doing anything beyond setting up Authorize.net with them directly and having them manage your processor, it is really difficult to figure out what to do and what you need. Customer service is great, but I prefer to just get things done on my own without multiple phone calls to set things up. Payments come slowly and it just overall feels really outdated for me.

Alternatives Considered: Venmo

Reasons for Choosing authorize.net: Square continued freezing my account for no reason and it was incredibly frustrating.

Switched From: Square Payments

Reasons for Switching to authorize.net: I actually use both now, and generally prefer Venmo, but it depends on the circumstance and platform I am using.
