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

Pipefy

  • Free Starter tier caps at 5 processes even with up to 10 users
  • Business and Enterprise tiers publish no per-user price on the pricing page; both require contacting sales for a custom quote
  • Cancellations do not receive refunds even though the plan can be changed or stopped at any time
