Discriminatory practices. Poor pre-sales communications,

We are an established business with 5+ years of operation and excellent reputation with Stripe and PayPal, we had 0 chargebacks over the last 3 years. We got interested in BlueSnap because of lower rates they promise, which seemed interesting to us. The pre-sales process was tedious and lengthy, sometimes the sales rep would take up to 4 days to write a reply. Finally we got all our questions answered and submitted an application. The application got rejected because the company is registered in a Balkan country, however in the rejection letter the company declined to indicate the reason for rejection. We had merchant accounts with other credit card processors and had no problems. From my research I found out that BlueSnap routinely rejects applications based on country of application. This is discriminatory practice and I would definitely call it a racist approach to business. If you are from an Eastern European country for example do not submit your application, go to a company which does not practice racism.

The worst experience in communication with sales team!!

I had the worst experience in communication with BlueSnap sales team!! they say they are global but they don't support global customers! they asked us to provide many documents to approve us and we did..and after many emails, an initial approvement and acceptance of our application were received by sales team, then there was no response anymore to our emails, at last they replied and rejected us giving no reason why they are rejecting us!! So confusing and just a waste of time in following up for a whole month between rejection and then acceptance then rejection again of our application!!

I have been with them for almost two…

I have been with them for almost two years until I decide to sell my business and I can tell that I have always been very satisfied with them. I found their payment processing fees to be relatively lower in comparison to their average competitors. Their excellent team has been always very helpful and responsive each time I had to contact them

Horrific company. STAY AWAY!

Horrific company. Signed up with them for a SaaS business and they have rejected the application because of some "red flag" in the application.

Will move to another merchant account which actually cares about my business.

Pre-sales never gets back to you

Pre-sales never gets back to you. In our case we process more than USD 350.000 in payments and yet ... no response at all.

NO CUSTOMER SERVICE

NO CUSTOMER SERVICE. We have never had such experience with a company as we had with BlueSnap. After contact the company, they asked us to send many documents to approve us. Since then, for more than a month, countless phone calls, more than 20 emails, we still NEVER HEARD BACK FROM THEM !
Stay away from a company that doesn’t give any service or customer support.

We will report this back to the team & customer service so that they are aware and so we can work on improving our processes. Again, we are very sorry for your experience.

They are say they are Global, but not accept Global customers.

They say "Sell Globally", but they don´t accept legally constituted companies in the US whose target market is in Latin America.
In fact they are in US and do business in Europe for example. I weird way of thinking business.
Hello, this is 2018!!. Internet is global and so business are. And that what we are going to do. We will sell globally and we will stay global.

They first say ok, you are approved, gave you a welcome letter and 15 minutes later close it with no other reason than " we cannot support your business model"

You should say the truth. You don´t like Latinos as owners.
Very disappointed with your customer service.

BlueSnap has a very good system for processing credit cards. The customer service is poor. The only time you can speak with someone via phone is when they are trying to sign up new merchants. Once you are signed up, BlueSnap forces communications primarily through emails.

Hi Dean,

We are very sorry to read your feedback, this is far from the customer experience that we want you to have with us.
We are honored to serve many callers during our Support hours and we are doing our best to provide all of them with all the answers they need.
Unfortunately it happens that the calls queue is longer during business hours and our agents are able to provide faster service via email – but we really do not have any preference between phone, chat and email support – we aim to be the best, regardless of the platform, so your feedback is valuable to us. In the meantime, Please send us a note to social at bluesnap dot com so we can help understand your concerns or a specific incident better!

My issue is still open.

My issue is still open.
ClickFunnels doesn't accept BlueSnap integration.
Someone has "fixed" the API but now is asking for the complete name in the credit card (less data is best).
Problem not solved.

it is not user-friendly

Hi,
My review:
1) Manual is very hard to understand or to find any info, because of the language and it looks like it is extinct. Every time I need to ask for support. Usually, they answer well, but sometimes not for all questions.
2) It takes too much time to find something. For instance: Contract edition -> Display in My Store (the pop-up direct me Settings->General Settings->Store Settings There is no any option like this!
3) If you open the window Products, you can see links at the top: Dashboard->Products (there is no way from the Dashboard Page to the Products, only from the menu on the left)
4) Dashboard -> Products I can create new male only in the Order Emal. There is no such option in New Email (nevertheless it is written there "You can choose from any existing email template or create a new Email Template."
5) The emails: hard to find, they are altogether, no any possibility to manage them. A little bit tricky to write code - I expected BlueSnap is more advanced in this case.
6) In overall, it is not user-friendly at all. The same feedback I've got from my clients, they had problems to find where to switch Currency and Language settings.

Hi Sofya,
While we're getting many compliments on our Documentation site and UI, we have some plans to improve it and we're constantly looking for new ideas. That is why your feedback is valuable for us!
Could you leave us your contact information in Social at BlueSnap dot com so a Support agent can reach out to you and ask you a few questions?
This is the type of feedback to makes us better at what we do – I hope we'll be able to give you reasons to give us a higher rating next time.

We had extreme difficulty in setting up the service meaning we wear without a provider for 4 weeks (from initial introduction to the point the service was working). I hope the service makes up for it!
