Braintree Blog

Payments are powered by Braintree (using their securely hosted iframes feature). Fee is 2.9% + $0.30. Same as Stripe and PayPal - they've all pretty much set this as a "standard" for the fee. Probably worth noting that the minimum transaction on SubmitHub is $5. https://www.braintreepayments.com/

If you want to try out both PayPal and cards, you should probably use Braintree Payments. They even process your first $50k for free, which is great for startups. Uber and Airbnb use them, see how seamless those checkouts are? https://www.braintreepayments.com/

If you go with PayPal I'd recommend only using their free services (e.g., the "subscribe button") or going with BrainTree (https://www.braintreepayments.com) which is also free and a nicer way to integrate PayPal than their paid APIs. Payflow Pro by PayPal ($30/mo) is ridiculously complex and it's better to buy an additional 3rd-party service built on top to make it easier (you'd end up paying $100+/month plus 2.9%).

We have just gone down this route in the last 12 months with our SaaS product (http://formitize.com) and unfortunately for now the choices are limited. Paypal is the obvious one of course, but I am not a huge fan, hate their API and don't trust one day the account will be frozen for 6 months from an income spike. Pin is coming along but is still in beta so we were not prepared to risk it just yet, and forget the banking API's, the costs and hoop jumping is a little silly. Our solution in the end was Braintree (https://www.braintreepayments.com/) who's API is infinitely easier than Paypals and handles most of the tricky stuff you might need to throw at it being a SaaS company. Best of luck, hope it helps.

One of the best services out there is http://www.braintreepayments.com/ but you can also look at http://www.2checkout.com. Both of them have great solutions depending on what you need. We are migrating from PayPal to BrainTree this spring.

There is room for far more than 2 large players. https://2c2p.com/ https://adyen.com/ https://checkout.com/ https://braintreepayments.com/

What about Braintree [1]? Owned by Paypal, but supports credit card payments directly and Paypal, Apple Pay and Google Pay. There's also Adyen [2], used by Uber for example. Supports dozens of payment methods. [1] https://www.braintreepayments.com/ [2] https://www.adyen.com/

FWIW, since Stripe has been completely ignoring Central Europe (I'm in Poland), I've been using Braintree (https://www.braintreepayments.com), which does want my money. It's not as hip and fashionable as Stripe, but does work fairly well. They do subscriptions, but I had to take care of invoicing myself.

We're successfully using Braintree for about 4 years now and I know several other Estonian startups who do as well. https://www.braintreepayments.com

On this topic, here's a great reference for some common operations on high volume SQL databases: https://www.braintreepayments.com/blog/safe-operations-for-high-volume… Has anyone been collating large-scale SQL best practices into a book or similar? I've found high-level overviews such as this https://github.com/donnemartin/system-design-primer, but lacks specifics to scaling SQL...I've only seen disparate blog posts like the one above.

And yes, Chrome web store allows payments. We have http://braintreepayments.com and http://paypal.com. Having them play together is hard enough...

Braintree has a Canadian product that allows you to present and settle in CAD and USD. You can check out the documentation for their best integration here: https://www.braintreepayments.com/v.zero. They also have a support team that will answer any questions you may have by phone or email as you investigate different payment processors.

Having done the same (Seattle then Chicago) trading is big here, and pays well, but can be less than rewarding if you like building products. That being said, I think there are plenty of interesting tech companies here if you dig a bit. For example, CleverSafe (https://www.cleversafe.com/), Signal (http://www.signal.co/), and BrainTree (https://www.braintreepayments.com/) are larger ones with real engineering challenges. And, if you are interested in a smaller Chicago company doing interesting things, feel free to check out Earshot (http://earshotinc.com/careers) - we are hiring. </plug> Even if Earshot isn't right for you feel free to connect with me if you are interested in the Chicago startup scene.

San Francisco, CA (SOMA) - Generalists & Android Engineers www.braintreepayments.com - [email protected] We’re polygots. We write most of our software in Ruby but don’t confine ourselves to using a single programming language. We use the best tool for whatever task is at hand. We pair program. We like object oriented programming. We test, obsessively. When we say we’re an agile software development environment, we mean it. We’re pragmatic, not dogmatic, and we value our people. Take a look at some of our blog posts to see some of the problems we face: http://www.braintreepayments.com/inside-braintree/how-we-built-the-sof… Take a peek at some of the code we have on github: https://github.com/braintree

Braintree was bought by Ebay last year. Someone looking for an alternative to PayPal probably won't be too inspired when they see "A PayPal Company" below Braintree's logo[1]. [1]: https://www.braintreepayments.com/

Some usability things I noticed on the Drop-in UI Sample Page: (https://www.braintreepayments.com/features/drop-in) It appears that the PayPal is a header, rather than a button, it has no call to action. Separating the credit card form from the button and giving it a clear header (Like: "Pay With Credit Card") would help indicate the choice of PayPal or Credit Card. Also, I'm not sure if it's intentional, but the credit card form doesn't actually do anything. Completing the form with a test credit card gives no follow-up call to action. This could be confusing to people wanting to see a "working" integration.

https://www.braintreepayments.com is just as easy as Stripe to use, and can be used in Denmark and other European countries right now. Stripe is coming to Denmark soon and is already in several other European countries. I don't see the problem?

It's a little hard to judge some of the locations. Their careers page says "Why we love Chicago, the Bay Area and New York". https://www.braintreepayments.com/careers But they've also got this on many of their pages: "Braintree is a registered ISO/MSP of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., Walnut Creek, CA". I'm not sure if this location refers to Braintree or to Wells Fargo.

The CC-required-for-trial thing is a form of 'negative option billing' and, IMO, it would be best not to do it. Many companies have stopped (a high profile example: 37signals no longer requires credit cards to signup for Basecamp). Braintree has a good article on it [1]. In that article are some recommendations for when you must do negative option billing - one of which is to send them a warning 5 days before billing. [1]: https://www.braintreepayments.com/blog/negative-option

https://www.braintreepayments.com/ "Interchange +.9% + €.10 per transaction. €100 per month minimum • Everything included • No additional fees". This is probably shown only to EU visitors. I also confirmed this with braintreepayments support and their reply was: "The €100 is a monthly minimum based on a per transaction fee of €0.10. For example, if your first month of transaction charges are €68, you would need to pay an additional €32 to 'top up' the amount. Interchange + 0.90% is not part of the calculation. Only the per transaction fee of €0.10 is used to calculate the €100 monthly minimum." When I switch the site to "United States" it reads: "2.9% + $.30 per transaction. No additional fees • No minimums • Everything included" Extremely annoyed by seeing this minimum applied only to the EU countries!

https://www.braintreepayments.com/ There are a bunch of alternatives as for eCommerce that might be a little specific so I would do as much research as possible. Obviously don't use paypal

Sheesh that sux. Unfortunately https://www.braintreepayments.com/ is not world wide yet (I'm in New Zealand) but I will keep an eye on them.

Have you looked at Braintree: https://www.braintreepayments.com For quicker invite to Stripe Australia beta, drop them a message on Twitter. By the way, at the moment Stripe Australia only supports charging in AUD, with USD support to come later.

I rolled up my own using https://www.braintreepayments.com/ but you should also check out http://www.chargebee.com

https://www.braintreepayments.com/ Haven't used them myself but seen some positive reviews for them.

I'm looking at using https://www.braintreepayments.com/tour/international for online ticket sales a little later this year. (I'd love to use Pin, but I'm still waiting for a way to use them without the massive bugbear of anything beyond PCI SAQ A, which comes into play as soon as you're POSTing CC numbers to your server.) PS: Hi Marcus. ProgSoc Rob here. :D
