(Original )Information
What do you like best about BlueSnap?

- BlueSnap can accomodate needs across a multi-national company which allows the company to offer standartized approach accross the business.

- The technical support to merchants is fast and of good quality, the team actually digs into one´s issue instead of giving a standart answer.

- The offer of supported payment methods is quite vast.

- Their merchant console is user-friendly and one can extract a variety of reports which is quite useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BlueSnap?

- The are restrictions on payouts made in various currencies for the same entity, based on transaction volume. It would be helpful to receive payouts in the same currency as the payment was made, without any limitations on the transaction volume. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BlueSnap solving and how is that benefiting you?

With BlueSnap solutions our company has reduced the time spent on processing the payments. Now a big part of the payments received daily are directed to one place - BlueSnap meaning that reconciling payments has become much faster and easier. Besides that, 2/3 of these payments have a receipt issued automatically which turns the process even more efortless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from April Grudier of BlueSnap

Thank you, Madara for your review. BlueSnap is committed to helping multinational companies thrive. We are always here to help should you ever have any questions.

What do you like best about BlueSnap?

Dedicated Account Manager, who knows our business, and which BlueSnap services are the right fit for us

Scheduled bi-weekly check-ins for support and/or updates

Good documentation for our developer team to reference

Great technical support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BlueSnap?

BlueSnap does not yet use 3DS 2.2, which we require for our UK and EU markets and websites

BlueSnap is not a Merchant of Record, so we are unable to use them to expand into the Latin American Markets (e.g., Argentina) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BlueSnap solving and how is that benefiting you?

BlueSnap has actually found that we were using the AccountUpdater to the fullest extent, and were losing potential customers and revenue. This was a HUGE discovery. It also made us realize how much time and support BlueSnap gives us as clients and merchants, which is invaluable.

Our Account Manager is amazing. They have answered so many questions, to help us improve our processes. They are currently trying to help up expand into the LatAm marketplace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BlueSnap?

BlueSnap just works. The cost is basically just the transaction fees as well, which makes BlueSnap very competitive compared to competitors that charge additional fees, monthly costs, etc. Pair BlueSnap with an inexpensive partner solution for the frontend such as Jotform and you have a very lean, easy to setup, cheap to maintain payment system that gets you into the world of online payments quickly and securely. Customer support chat makes it easy to get questions answered. We have many payment forms and use BlueSnap extensively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BlueSnap?

BlueSnap is a payment processor. It's not a complete all-in-one solution. This is ok though! That's why you look to see who their partners are and integrate Bluesnap into a partner frontend. My one slight gripe would be that because we work with a partner, we don't have complete API control and that's where some of the more advanced and useful functions we are looking for are. Also, subscriptions can have some interesting behavior such as not being able to change details once the second to last payment takes place. Again, small gripes. Very solid overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BlueSnap solving and how is that benefiting you?

An inexpensive and easy payment gateway that we can integrate with Jotform to take online payments for a wide variety of things in district. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BlueSnap?

First of all, the onboarding, ease of implementation, and support are first-class. The product (Armatic) is better than advertised. In today's technology economy, the paradigm is that the software never lives up to the hype. I would say that BlueSnap/Armatic over-delivered in its features, capabilities, and intuitiveness. A refreshing experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BlueSnap?

There isn't anything that BlueSnap doesn't do that we need it to. Of course, we look forward to product development, new features, additional automation, etc. We're confident that the BlueSnap/Armatic team has a robust roadmap for updated functionality and features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BlueSnap solving and how is that benefiting you?

BlueSnap provided additional features that our previous solution did not. All while providing additional features and capabilities that we have found to improve our previous invoicing and collection processes. Armatic reporting was also an improvement from the previous platform's. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Payment button on invoices makes it super easy for clients that prefer e-checks or credit cards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BlueSnap?

Initial set up was a bit sticky due to partial foreign ownership of our company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BlueSnap solving and how is that benefiting you?

We don't take credit cards often and used PayPal in the past. It was really rinky dink. Payments arrive quickly and the presentation is much more professional. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BlueSnap?

David, our primary account contact, has been a great & trustworthy colleague during this time - always engaged and responsive at all times. We have also found the support team in Israel to be highly competent and enabling.

Look forward to extending the fruitful partnership with Bluesnap.

We have been a long-time customer of Bluesnap and recently decided to move from a reseller partnership to a PayFac model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BlueSnap?

Integration with Chargify/ Maxio for payment methods and for bank authorisation errors

Reporting on non-processing fees is difficult to obtain

Chargebacks process clarity & information after submission

Processing fees for USD transactions as a result of the US cards (resulting in fees being in line with non-USD fees which have an FX fee included) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BlueSnap solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reducing fees and enabling automatic collections via our subscription & billing management platform. Improving integration with Maxio and Chargify so that we can facilitate ApplePay, GooglePay and other payment methods. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BlueSnap?

Our working relationship with BlueSnap has been a productive and positive one. Key elements as far as differentiation goes are the level of communication we receive. This includes prompt access to account managers and reviews. The amount of dialogue with the development team, when necessary, as updates or changes to payment integration are concerned is appreciated as well.

Overall, BlueSnap is a professional and competent payment partner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BlueSnap?

None so far and we can see ourselves working with BlueSnap for a long time to come, and I don't anticipate there will be any substantial points of friction going forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BlueSnap solving and how is that benefiting you?

BlueSnap solves a few problems for us. Notably, there is very little downtime - providing a stable payment gateway. Needless to say, that is a critical function of a reliable payment partner. BlueSnap also provides competitive costs and monthly reports that make optimization far easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BlueSnap?

They work with you to make sure you get the most out of their service, they actually have a dialog with you and they make sure you understand what is going on and why, even showing you why and how and it makes a big difference from previous vendors who were so automated i think i only spoke to one of their techs the entire time we were a customer, and that was only during setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BlueSnap?

They keep you on your toes about security. They make sure you are doing what you need to do and keep you updated when they update their requirements, or should I say when the Industry updates it's expectations of vendors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BlueSnap solving and how is that benefiting you?

They process our credit card payments. It is benefiting us by being cheaper than the previous system while having fewer outages than the previous system by far. I should go back to the other question and replace the best part of blue snap with how stable they have been compared to their predecessors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
