Why merchants switch to Finix
Pain point | Finix solution |
|---|---|
WooPayments uses flat-rate pricing, which is simple to understand but doesn't automatically become more cost-effective as your payment volume grows. International card and currency conversion surcharges can also increase costs. | Finix uses interchange-plus pricing, so your costs reflect the underlying card fees plus a transparent markup. As payment volume grows, interchange-plus pricing gives businesses greater visibility into payment costs and may reduce processing fees compared with flat-rate pricing. |
Some merchants have reported extended fund holds for weeks following disputes or unusual account activity | Finix pairs your account with a support team you can reach directly to work through disputes and holds. |
WooPayments support runs through a ticket system, and forum threads describe multi-week waits on payout issues. | You'll have access to dedicated human support from setup onwards, so you know who to contact if payment issues arise. |
