Chose Apple Pay
Google Pay covers all google users, but Apple Pay works better with iphone users.
Chose Apple Pay
Apple Pay is easier because you don't need to use the app to send or request payments. You can just store card information and use your electronic device to pay. In addition, receipts are automatically generated and stored for easy reimbursement. Venmo generally requires …
Chose Apple Pay
When I had my Android/Samsung phone, I tried Samsung's version of Apple Pay and it was terrible. It was very glitchy, and sometimes I would get a notification that I paid for something when I wasn't even in a checkout screen, like I was just browsing the internet or something …
Chose Apple Pay
Newer, less old framework to worry about. It has the Apple name with it and basically comes ready to use on their devices which is nice for the audience who will be using it.
Chose Apple Pay
Apple is easier to use less work to set up. Easy to integrate and use.
Chose Apple Pay
It's a universal payment platform at this point, and every Apple user can simply donate using the program. Other payment servers take time to set up and type in card numbers, whereas Apple Pay is set up and ready to go.
Chose Apple Pay
Our choice to use Apple Pay was made because of the fast and easy access to funds, it is largely accepted by most vendors and it is a knowingly secure platform for transactions. Making it a trusted and effective resource for our company to utilize. We also found the setup to be …
Chose Apple Pay
Apple Pay and Google Pay are very similar function-wise but vary significantly in design. We chose Apple Pay for its improved security over physical card transactions. Apple pay also provides a much simpler user interface for the customer when processing a transaction, unlike …
Chose Apple Pay
I've used Concur Travel and Expense in the past and I very much liked that expenses were automatically inputted into the Concur reimbursement system. However, when I've used Concur for work, I had a corresponding credit card without Apple Pay -- so I used the credit card …
Chose Apple Pay
More functionality within Apple Pay. Using multiple cards, accessing without opening phone.
Chose Apple Pay
Apple is still superior to other things there. I am not too familiar with android payment systems, so I can't compare that. But I also know our customers prefer PayPal Payments, which does make payments easy, but it isn't as seamless as Apple Pay. Apple Pay is still the best …
Worldpay from FIS
Chose Worldpay from FIS
We looked at using Authorize.net and we went with Worldpay because it was most similar to our US backend. If we started from scratch, we would have harmonized and done both US and international on the same gateway as it would have simplified our overall landscape from …
Chose Worldpay from FIS
I have not used any other products like World Pay before.
Chose Worldpay from FIS
As our payment gateway, Authorize.net allowed us to adjust the settings for which customer information we want to verify before the transaction is approved. None of those options are available on WorldPay and they act like we're idiots for even asking. As a result, we've seen a …
Chose Worldpay from FIS
ANYONE would be better than Worldpay. My parent company requires its use. Otherwise, I would have run away screaming a long time ago.
Chose Worldpay from FIS
Vantiv provides many more options in the way of reporting than authorize.net and Paypal. Vantiv also lets you link multiple accounts to one login, which saves a lot of time. I would say that Vantiv's website is less reliable than that of authorize.net or Paypal, which can be …
Chose Worldpay from FIS
We have been using Vantiv for years, and have added other online payment options for other applications as needed. Some payment options are geared more toward donations, others are for mobile payments, others can do a little of both. Vantiv is what we use strictly for our …

Likelihood to Recommend
If you accept payments while selling goods and services, Apple Pay can help you speed up the payment process while securely accepting payments. Since there is no need to stick a card into a machine, users won't have to fumble looking for a card when they can put their whole wallet on Apple Pay and check out easily.

World pay from FIS is well suited to help our clients with storing credit cards on file in the software, memberships, offers a variety of payment options, etc. Typically it can be less suited for smaller businesses who are getting better rates from their local banks in town, compared to what World Pay can offer them.

Pros
  • The double click which launches it couldn't be easier; you don't even have to open your phone and find the app.
  • It's pretty much fool proof from there, as just holding your phone near the reader is sufficient for success.
  • Haptic feedback ensures that I know the payment registered.
  • I have full faith and confidence that the transaction was executed securely.

  • Vantiv's credit card processing terminal is very straightforward, easy to use, and fast.
  • Vantiv's credit card dispute portal provides beneficial information regarding disputes and chargebacks. Even the customer number associated with the charge is provided, which cuts down on time needed to research conflicts.
  • The Vantiv homepage/dashboard is structured in a very easy to navigate fashion.

Cons
  • At times, my Apple Pay will pop up unintentionally. Perhaps there can be more safeguards around that.
  • Apple Pay is not super great if I need to make a return. For any return, I've found that paper receipts are superior.
  • Apple Pay sometimes requires very specific positioning when scanning the phone, which is frustrating.

  • The account teams that are assigned are not technical.
  • It can be very hard to get answers if you talk to the wrong person.
  • There is long lead times in account set up.

As long as Vantiv continues to improve and we can get better responses from customer service, we will likely continue to use Vantiv. However, if customer service declines, we will likely look for something else

Many customer support employees of Vantiv do not seem to know much about the Vantiv website. I have been transferred around to as many as four different people to get an answer to what I thought was a simple question. I am not sure if it would be possible to receive adequate support for a more complex issue.

When I had my Android/Samsung phone, I tried Samsung's version of Apple Pay and it was terrible. It was very glitchy, and sometimes I would get a notification that I paid for something when I wasn't even in a checkout screen, like I was just browsing the internet or something and I'd get a notification! It was alarming and I quickly uninstalled the app and never used it again.

  • Duplicate charges have caused untold damage to our reputation
  • I've spent a ridiculous amount of time trying to fix WP problems with AND without tech support help
  • We switched POS systems from CenterEdge to Roller, but issues persist
  • The problems we experience have been so vast that we will never know the true cost of the negative impact WorldPay has had on our business.
