Luckily, it works just as I need it to but that was a big factor in using authorize.net. I am glad I made that investment > > **Cons**: I think having to pay a monthly gateway fee is a con but not enough of a con to keep me from using this service. > > I feel that my overall experience with authorize.net has been positive. When I first began using this product, I needed some customer support on an issue and they were so quick to respond and they let me know that they would be available 24/7 to help with any other questions that I may have. You can't beat customer service like that. ----- ### "Used for over 10 years\!" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *5 December 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: We were able to intergrade with our software at a cheaper rate. Easy log in and easy to run reports for members and sales. > > **Cons**: We were unable to charge 3% to the customer for online transactions. We did incur a monthly gateway fee plus multiple other fees monthly - we were pci compliment but yet still got charged on the statement > > We enjoyed using them - always great customer service and issues resolved - money was always transferred to the bank account and account managing and log in were easy to use\! ----- ### "Authorize is a handy tool" — 3.0/5 > **Dana** | *31 October 2025* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Authorize helps us securely capture payment from customers on our eCommerce customer facing site that is a partnership with our fulfillment business. It is easier to use than our home grown software for the end user for sure. > > **Cons**: We need separate accounts for US and Canadian payments. This means that we have to log in and out depending on the ship destination. It's also not the most user friendly on the back end. > > It's been fine, it does what it sets out to do but I don't consider it to be ground breaking. It does seem to have security figured out which is a nice plus. ----- ### "Good Stripe alternative for Woocommerce" — 4.0/5 > **Hilary** | *11 December 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: API access is great and there are paid plugins that make integrating with WooCommerce very easy. The also have low fees > > **Cons**: Their merchant UI is very outdated. It’s hard to find things and it’s small and hard to read sometimes. Looks like it was built in the 90s and never updated. > > Good\! With the good rates, and integration by SkyVerge for WooCommerce I can definitely recommend authorize.net ----- ### "Secure online payments and transfers for export operations." — 5.0/5 > **Jason** | *8 November 2025* | Import & Export | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Authorize.net gives us strong security for global transactions, plus simple account management and clear fees. The transferring of money to clients and partners is highly reliable; it assists in avoiding fraud issues. > > **Cons**: Account settings and updating staff permissions took some getting used to when dealing with a bigger team. Managing fees and multiple accounts is confusing at first. > > With this, our team is able to process safe payments and manage accounts with fewer errors, bringing more speed and confidence to our export operations. ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/54911/authorizenet?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/54911/authorizenet) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
