Who uses Braintree?


Is your pricing a little high?

Our pricing is actually very competitive. It may look higher because we disclose all our fees and because the gateway fees are bundled with the merchant account. Nearly every provider we know of obscures fees both during the sales process and in the monthly reporting statements so merchants never really understand what they're paying. We've been outspoken critics of this for a long time. Here's an example of pricing trickery.

Prospective customers regularly do thorough pricing comparisons and we are consistently among the most competitively priced. Our objective has always been to provide the best value in the industry for a fair price.

Contracts or cancellation fees?

No, we do not have contracts or cancellation fees. Merchants can cancel whenever they want without penalty.

Do you offer data portability?

Yes. If you decided to move to another provider and need the credit card information you've stored with us, we'll work with you to make that happen.

Do you charge for support?

No, our exceptional integration and ongoing support is included at no additional cost.

Work with my merchant account?

Yes. If you already have a merchant account and can't or don't want to move, we can work with you to provide gateway, vault and recurring billing services. Don't want to switch to us because you think you have better rates? You may want to check, just to make sure. We do need to verify that we can work with your provider so please contact us.


How to Quickly and Easily Achieve PCI Compliance

By using our Transparent Redirect (TR) and Vault, merchants can achieve PCI Compliance in days. TR and the Vault will eliminate the handling, processing or storing credit card data so you can qualify for the Self Assessment Questionnaire A, the shortest of the four SAQs. Download this pre-filled SAQ A version 1.2 as if you had our solutions implemented. You'll need to work with a Qualified Security Assessor to verify your qualification with this version of the SAQ.

4 Easy Steps to PCI Compliance:

  • Integrate our Transparent Redirect and Vault. For more information, visit our gateway support center.
  • Download the pre-filled SAQ A version 1.2 and verify it is consistent with business practices.
  • Contact a Qualified Security Assessor. We recommend Greg Johnson (gregj@securitymetrics.com) at Security Metrics.
  • Receive your certificate of compliance.

Note, if you are taking phone orders and entering the credit card information into our web console, you'll need to use the slightly longer SAQ C. A QSA can help you navigate these types of scenarios to make sure you're using the appropriate SAQ.
