Other pluses include customer invoicing feature for online payment requests as well as setting up recurring payment plan options. > > **Cons**: Occasional lag time with reporting delays, we had an issue with QBO syncing as well which resulted in duplicate invoices. > > Since from transitioning from Clover to Stax two years ago, our company has saved a considerable amount in processing fees not to mention time saved from searching for past invoices. The reporting features and dash board is easy to use, support team is readily available (shout out to \[sensitive content hidden\]), and invoicing and payment plan features are extremely helpful. Highly recommend\! ----- ### "\[sensitive content hidden\] are both AWESOME\!" — 5.0/5 > **Kim** | *December 5, 2025* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We've been with them for years. Always great service. \[sensitive content hidden\] is fantastic\! Clear, concise and explains things very well. I always get a follow-email to see if there is anything else I need from her which is great because I usually forget to ask her something\! :) > > **Cons**: Nothing. It's the easy button where credit card processing is concerned. No one loves paying credit card fees, but since we have to, we're happy to have Stax. > > Outstanding. I'm busy so when I find a service I can trust and not question their practices, I stick with them. We've been with Stax for longer than I can remember at this point, and I don't plan on going anywhere. ----- ### "Would not recommend Stax" — 2.0/5 > **Emma** | *December 12, 2025* | Cosmetics | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Cost savings. We were told about $10k in annual savings. After all the fees from onboarding, etc, I think the actual annual savings was closer to $3,000. > > **Cons**: The transfering process. Stax did not activate the auto batch as promised costing the practice over $200,000 in loss income, which took about 1 month to get back. We are still missing over $15,000. Because of this I would not recommend Stax to anyone. > > Terrible process with poorly trained sales reps and customer service agents. I was told everything would automatically transfer over from our old processor. This was not true. I had to manually enter hundreds of autopayments. We were also told batches would automatically close out at the end of each day, also not true. We realized nothing was coming into the bank account and it cost us an enormous sum of income. Very poorly trained sales reps that were only motivated by their commission. It has taken me over 1 month to recover this income by calling hundreds of patients to re-collect payments. It made us look terrible\! It was not worth the savings promised per year. ----- ### "Very Easy to USe" — 5.0/5 > **Andrea** | *April 27, 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of Use \& Financial Management: simple operations and clear control of finances for our small team. > > **Cons**: No cons so far. Everything is working as promised, It's great overall. Highly satisfied. Thank you very much\! > > Working with Stax Payments has been very pleasant. The application and the reporting meet our needs. ----- ### "Awesome merchant account\!" — 5.0/5 > **John** | *February 25, 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It was easy to use. Good customer service. Quick processing times. Overall, it has been an excellent merchant account. > > **Cons**: Onboarding to a bit of time. They requested a bunch of documents because we were considered a "high risk" business. ----- Page: 1 / 7\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/116119/fattmerchant?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/116119/fattmerchant) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
