Checkout.com ProcessOut in 2020, and ProcessOut states on its website that it runs as a standalone unit.
Reasons to look for ProcessOut alternatives vary. But typically merchants may need other capabilities, additional payment methods or markets, or a different mix of products from one vendor.
How we chose these ProcessOut alternatives
We compared six platforms that offer payment orchestration, using the information each company publishes on its website. Each platform was evaluated on five criteria:
- Coverage. The providers, acquirers, and payment methods a platform connects to through one integration.
- Routing and recovery. Routing rules decide which provider handles each payment, and retry logic decides what happens after a decline.
- Vault and tokens. A vault stores payment credentials, and tokenization replaces card numbers with tokens.
- Risk and disputes. Fraud tools screen payments, and chargeback tools help manage disputes.
- Finance and operations. Reporting, reconciliation, and adjacent modules such as billing or payouts.
