Adyen vs Structured
The short version
- Only Structured has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
- Each has a real cost: 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; Structured no monthly view available, only daily and weekly views, limiting ability to preview long-term schedules
- They diverge on capability: Adyen covers Payment processing, Structured covers Visual timeline.

- 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

Structured
- No monthly view available, only daily and weekly views, limiting ability to preview long-term schedules
- Cannot export to Excel, PDF, or other printable formats; only JSON export available on Apple devices
- Calendar import requires Pro subscription (except on web where free import is available)
- Android and web versions significantly lag behind iOS version in features and performance
