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

Divvy

  • Divvy is now sold as BILL Spend & Expense and getdivvy.com redirects to bill.com
  • No standalone pricing is published for the spend and expense product; the site routes to a trial signup and sales contact
  • Signup is gated behind selecting a business type and accounting software rather than being open self-serve
