Likelihood to Recommend
Authorize.net is reliable and I feel confident that customers' information is protected. The security protocols used by Authorize.net appear to be as good, and probably better than many credit card payment processors. However, the initial setup process was very difficult. I distinctly recall getting up and running as being very cumbersome and time-consuming. I also was disappointed with how the processing and deposit of payments were not consistent. I distinctly remember regretting the decision to go with Authorize.net. However, as mentioned before, with the time and effort required to get the account set up and running, I refused to go through the process again and try a different provider.

NMI Payment Gateway is well suited for any company looking to receive payments via the mayor's credit cards and recurring payments, it will get the job done easily and painlessly. Capturing manual payments is also an option does well. You might want to think about adding a security platform on top of what NMI offers.

Cons
  • The lack of data portability is a big issue for me.
  • Authorize.net uses the same $49.00 gateway setup fee to scam merchants out of money, which is no better than any of the other gateways out there.
  • Their customer service is not up to the mark. You can get stuck if you need any help from their end.

Alternatives Considered
We had previously used SAGE and Transaction Express. We've also explored Stripe, Amazon Pay, and Apple Pay as parallel payment options. In every situation, Authnet has better rates with fewer strings attached. It has also proven to have a significantly rich API which is a must-have for any solution we implement.

It is good, it might not be the best with the main features but has all it needs to perform well and keep it running with ease. It is one of the main payment gateways that our eCommerce has. In today's ecosystem, several are needed and without a doubt, this one is one that can be managed easily and without lots of development.

Return on Investment
  • Lets us charge cards so we can get paid on time, every time.
  • It was very difficult to setup the DocuSign integration the first time, but after we got it setup, it's made the onboarding process very easy. That probably saves about 30 minutes every time we get a new client.
