Adyen does not work with startups.
I contacted their sales and they slammed the door shut immediately. They were actually quite rude and the tone was like an automated email.
Their wording was they only wanted to work with LARGE companies which already processed LARGE volumes.
Unless someone from Adyen wants to clarify?
- cmdkeen 10y agoTheir pricing page says: "The minimum charge is 1,000 transactions a month, so the transaction cost will be at least €100 a month." Doesn't look startup friendly at all.
- no1youknowz 10y agoTrue. Unfortunately, what their website says and what their sales staff say on email are completely different things.
- no1youknowz 10y agoCan't edit my comment. For US company holders, adyen is totally out. "Adyen being a European based acquirer has set the requirement of at least 50% of the transaction volume to be European based." "This is a rule set forth in order to comply with card schemes such as Visa and MasterCard." From their sales. ------ Honestly, talking to their sales was like pulling teeth. I couldn't get anyone on the phone and neither would they call me. What would have taken a 5 minute call to go through the details. Turned out to be an all day event through email. /facepalm.

- laverick 10y agoWe used Adyen for a German-based startup about five years ago. I don't remember it being that difficult back then, but I just handled code. Our biz guys handled the account stuff. For what it's worth, they were both a little profligate and good at telling a big tale, so it may not have been an affordable or easy option back then either.
