Cons

“The biggest drawback was the transaction fees, which can add up over time, especially for businesses that process a high volume of invoices.”

Brianna T.

Admin

“I’ve also found that the customization options for the invoice design are somewhat basic, so it’s hard to make them perfectly match a specific brand aesthetic.”

Shuchun Y.

Software Engineer

“One downside is that the transaction fees can be a bit higher than other platforms, which starts to add up if you’re processing a lot of orders.”
