Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Adyen

  • There is a minimum monthly invoice, set by industry and business model and only disclosed through the sales team, so small volumes are not economic
  • Published fees are indicative rather than a rate card, with real pricing negotiated
  • Interchange++ means the card cost varies per transaction rather than being a single predictable percentage
  • Alternative payment methods carry their own rates on top, such as 3.3 percent plus $0.10 for American Express in North America

Billit

  • Annual billing required to get approximately 15% discount (one free month included)
  • Additional user seats cost €5 per user per month on top of plan price
  • Overage pricing per document decreases with tier, penalizing rapid growth within a tier
