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

Chatwork

  • No pricing figures or plan names are shown on the vendor's own homepage; only Sign up for free and Get Started buttons are offered, with pricing details requiring further navigation not present on the fetched page
  • The homepage highlights 256-bit encryption and ISO27001 certification as its main security claims without stating which plan tier includes them
