Where each one falls short

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

Paperbell

  • It only models packaged session based work, so anyone selling project scoped deliverables will find the proposal side too rigid to use.
  • There is no time tracking, project management or task system, so any work between sessions is managed somewhere else entirely.
  • Payments run through a third party gateway, so the card processing fee applies on top of the subscription and is easy to leave out of a comparison.
  • The flat account price is attractive at scale but poor value for a coach with two or three clients, who is subsidising capacity they do not use.
  • Customisation of the client facing pages is limited, so a coach with a strong brand will find the purchase flow looks like every other Paperbell account.

Payoneer

  • An annual account fee of $29.95 USD applies if the account receives less than $6,000 USD in any 12 consecutive months
  • The Payoneer card carries a $29.95 USD annual fee and $12.95 USD for a replacement
  • Converting between Payoneer balances in different currencies costs 0.50%
  • Receiving into a non local currency receiving account costs 1%, minimum $1.00 USD
  • Receiving by credit card costs up to 3.99% plus $0.49 USD
  • Withdrawing to a bank in the recipient's local currency costs 1.2% to 4%
  • ATM withdrawals cost $3.15 USD plus up to 1.8%, rising to 3.5% when currency is converted
  • Card purchases requiring conversion cost up to 3.5%

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Paperbell: Is it priced per client?

No. It is a flat account price with unlimited clients, which is unusual in this category and is the main economic argument for it.

Payoneer: What are Payoneer's withdrawal fees?

Payoneer states its mission is to simplify international payments, but specific withdrawal fees are not published on the homepage. Fee details are accessed via the pricing section.

Source
Paperbell: Does it take a cut of my payments?

The card processor takes its standard fee. Confirm the current subscription price with the vendor and model the processing fee separately.

Payoneer: How much does Payoneer charge for currency conversion?

Payoneer manages multi-currency transactions but does not display conversion rates or fee percentages on the main website.

Source
Paperbell: Can I use it for project work?

Not well. It is built around packages of sessions, and project scoped proposals do not fit that shape.

Payoneer: Is there a monthly fee to keep a Payoneer account?

Payoneer does not list account maintenance fees on its homepage. Specific pricing for account types (freelancer, business, marketplace) requires accessing the pricing page.

Source
Paperbell: Do I still need a scheduling tool?

No. Scheduling is built in, and replacing a separate scheduling subscription is part of the cost case.

Paperbell: Can I brand the client pages?

Only lightly. Deep brand customisation is not available.
