We used WePay to link to our auction site to receive payments. There were options of a few and I chose WePay. It is used during this event (Dec-March). It is used by accounting.
  • Links up to other websites easily.
  • Links up to your bank account easily.
  • Pulls reports.
It is good when you need a temporary (or permanent) solution to get funds to your bank account for something as small as a one time event, recurring or larger. It has reputable companies that use it and seems to integrate easily with most systems and accounts. You will have to go through a whole setup, with your bank accounts, etc.

WePay... it's just okay.

We utilize WePay as our payment processor in combination with Classy. It is primarily our Development and Accounting departments that utilize WePay to process credit card transactions and have them directly deposited in our bank account. Seems to be a fairly standard payment processor with low fees. WePay integrates well with the Classy platform which is why we opted to use it.
  • Low fees/rates
  • Integrates well with Classy
  • Email notifications
If you need a basic payment processor for credit card transactions with low fees/rates, WePay will work just fine. We wish it had the ability to process multiple transactions through the use of a credit card swiper or at least an easier/faster solution than having to re-fill out the transaction page on the website over and over. This could be a limitation due to our integration with Classy.

Great platform for marketplace payment

WePay is being used to accept payment and allow sharing revenue without the hassle of setting up your own merchant account.
  • Provide sample codes and SDK
  • Great dashboard to see your overall transactions and revenue
  • Easy to integrate with your existing system
I would recommend WePay if you are looking a way to implement a marketplace-type revenue sharing program. Less appropriate if you are trying to have a "buy it now" type button for your online store.

We use WePay by office administrators and representatives to create one time and recurring billing subscriptions for our clients. It's a great alternative to PayPal to save on the percentage of transaction charges. We first used WePay in InfusionSoft and now use it within Zoho Subscriptions and Zoho Invoice for our billing. Their support is quick to respond in case we have questions, and its fairly easy to set up and get running with.
  • Lower cost than their competitors, as a start up every dollar we can save makes a difference.
  • Processing of payments is quick, we are notified and the funds are deposited usually within 2-3 business days.
  • They can be integrated with a lot of different systems online.
  • Simple to set up and start taking credit card payments.
Start up and small businesses could use WePay in conjunction with easy to use online billing systems. I was initially introduced to it with InfusionSoft CRM and from there I switched to a different system and found that they have many billing systems that they integrate with. They have different features than PayPal and Stripe, for non tech people it is very helpful. You don't need a huge understanding of API's and web hooks to get WePay integrated and start billing customers.

WePay has been Great!

Wepay is used with Continue to Give in the same way GoFundMe uses Wepay. Anyone can sign up for a fundraiser on our platform and they create a WePay account in order to accept donations through our platform. WePay acts as the backend processor of our personal or small nonprofit fundraising pages.
  • Quick Setup and Approval of an Account
  • Allows 30 days for to finish a Wepay account but during the interim you can store transactions with them
  • Quick customer service
  • User friendly
Wepay is great for a personal fundraiser because there is no monthly cost. This allows a person to set up an account with wepay quickly without a loss in a monthly fee. WePay is not suited well for larger organizations that will gain volume of transactions because their rates are expensive. It's better for a larger organization to pay a monthly fee with a merchant account and get lower rates.

Easiest option for my customers

Our nonprofit customers use our software to help plan, manage, and run fundraising auctions. Along with our software, they need credit-card processing - and it needs to integrate tightly with our platform, be easy and quick to sign up for, and be affordable. We integrate with many providers, but a significant portion of our incoming customers choose to use WePay.
  • Fast, easy signup - this is the primary reason we implemented support for WePay.
  • Customers who opt for WePay as their processor can begin accepting transactions within a few minutes - crucial when the team mounting the auction is a little behind in their planning process.
It's a fantastic option for platforms whose customers are going to need temporary processing capacity - if they only need a few weeks or months where they are accepting cards, it's really amazingly competitive.

Great addition to your website for shopping carts
