RateHawk vs. WeTravel

In particular, planning group travel or trips that span multiple destinations is easy when using the platform because it is simple and effective. It turns out to be very useful when it comes to organizing complicated schedules.

I would highly recommend WeTravel to other fitness instructors and studio owners looking to help organize their retreat registration websites, information, and make payment processing simple and easy!

• Their fees are only about 1% of your trip’s revenue, which is much less than Square or PayPal.

Incentivized

• Paying for the service as well as fees for services of third party entities such as lodging, transportation, and activities depending on the type of client using the service.
• May have a learning curve for new users due to its extensive features.

• Refunds. I'd like to be able to refund any amount of the trip cost, not just payments in full. For example, someone puts down a $500 trip deposit. WeTravel only gives me the option to refund that $500 in full, not partially.

It is easy to use and the support is always there to help.

RateHawk is much more user friendly. Because of Vinet America’s Customization options to tailor the platform to a specific agency’s needs, the process could require an agency to have their own IT staff to complete this process, which could leave smaller agencies at a loss with their services.

WeTravel is far superior to PayPal. Their fees are much less, and they offer so much more than just payment processing. They are a huge asset in helping me manage all the retreats we run, organize information and room availability, and process payments

• Time is saved in the process of keeping up with separate bills, bookings, and record keeping. This can mean the difference between closing a deal or losing it.
• All costs are consolidated under one invoice and professionally recorded without paying your own staff or secretary salary to have this done.

• Since their fees are minimal (about 1%), we've been able to save money vs. if we went with other payment processers like PayPal or Square.
