And fantastic\!" — 5.0/5 > **Ivana** | *3 January 2017* | Professional Training & Coaching | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great features, recurring billing, detailed reports, and quick support. > > **Cons**: At the time we started processing with Alternative Payments they didn't have WooCommerce plugin. Released it a couple of weeks ago, so basically nothing. > > The first think we like is their assistance, expertise, and knowledge these guys have when it comes to local payment methods. After long analysis how to approach new markets without credit card processing we decided to choose Alternative Payments and we didn't make a mistake. We sell online courses about parenting and the conversion rates with local solutions are just great\! What we also like is that you don't pay anything until you make a transaction. The integration took a while as we picked all the payment options offered, but the slow speed was caused by us. ----- ### "Stay away from Alternative Payments before they steal your customer money." — 1.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *12 March 2018* | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Cons**: We worked with Alternative Payments for a few month before they suddenly decided to close permanently our account with no apparent reason. It's been almost 2 weeks we are trying to contact them to know how we can get back the money from our customers who paid using Alternative Payments but nobody is replying. We tried emailing their compliance team, sales team, account manager, we tried to call them, to chat with them on their livechat, Facebook, we contacted multiple managers on Linkedin, absolutely no reply from them. ----- ### "Excellent Solution\!" — 5.0/5 > **Bryant** | *22 November 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: This solution was easy to implement.
