If someone will ask for a good and reliable payment provider for their business needs (it can be any type of online business) - I would definitely recommend Checkout.com. I wouldn't recommend Checkout.com to someone who works in a "grey area".

We are using it for building our payment gateway service where customers (in high volume) can pay with ease using their debit/credit card or e-wallets without the need for us to be PCI-DSS compliant. We also use the feature to pull payments reports daily for the purposes of internal reconcilliation. Probably more.
Pros
Documentation and ease of use/integration
Strong support
Amazing dashboards and controls through the UI
Cons
I think it's enough feature rich and have never had any similar issues using Checkout.com
Likelihood to Recommend

Checkout.com is one of our primary gateways. Seamlessly integrated into our payment stack, it delivers reliable payment services across our brands for eCommerce traffic and other business initiatives.
Pros
They provide excellent advice from knowledgeable subject matter experts on all things payments.
They adapt quickly to our business-changing needs, helping us stay agile as our business grows.
They provide trustworthy and reliable services that enable us to take payments with as little friction as possible.
They are as passionate about performance as we are, working closely with us to ensure we maximize the chances of success for every transaction.
Cons
It would be great to see more data points available in the data analytics area of the dashboard.
While coverage is good, more APMs, particularly across Europe, would be great to allow us to maximise the opportunities there.
An advanced query tool built into the platform that allowed access to manipulate the raw data via SQL and extract it for further analysis and aggregation with other data sets.
We use Checkout.com to process payments globally, and we've been impressed by their customer focus. They always suggest new features to improve our payment acceptance and are very keen on receiving feedback.

Payment method coverage.

It has been great working with Checkout.com. They are very focused on attending to our needs as an e-commerce platform and always listen very closely to our feedback. One point I would recommend as improvement is working on having more payment methods available.

Checkout is our primary payment provider for debit and credit card deposits in the EU, UK, and Australia. This gives us an alternative to SEPA deposits and one that allows us to build more attractive products on top of them (for instance, subscription services, which don't work functionally with SEPA deposits but are really easy with cards).
Pros
Payment Recon.
Refunds
Chargeback Handling.
Fraud Detection.
Customer Service.
Cons
Need to add pre-arbitrations and arbitrations to the portal directly.
Support for deferred debit cards.

High approval rates
Technically savvy

We use Checkout.com for cross-border cards and, starting next week, handle Nordic countries and part of the UK market. With Checkout.com, we can split volumes among providers to have redundancy and optimize performance so that Checkout.com may be the best option. In addition, we use checkout.com to handle exemptions (TRA) in a currency different than EUR and take advantage of their threshold in the UK, which is higher than all our providers.
Pros
Account Manager definitely present to quickly handle our needs.
Checkout.com is the only provider proactively proposing solutions to optimize our routing strategy to increase conversion rates and reduce costs for more than ten years.
They have extreme expertise in the area of payments that is not so obvious.
Cons
Regarding IA, the report did not contain much data at the beginning, but they worked on it. This is excellent!
I would like no limits in volumes due to some questionable stakes.
Not much to add.
Likelihood to Recommend
Checkout.com is the best provider we have had in the last ten years. It is very well suited to developing solutions for conversion rate optimization, cost reduction, and services like smart acceptance. I don't see any issue with them; there is no scenario they are not able to handle. I don't see any scenario in which they are not suitable.

I use Checkout.com to analyze the risk rules I create, to then create risk strategies. I really like to use the shadow testing option thanks to new features like Backtesting and Forward plan). I also challenge disputes on a daily basis. I analyze the impact of created rules on authorization and conversion rates.
Pros
The ability to create rules using syntax - this allows you to adapt the rules to almost any fraudulent schemes and attacks.
Risk strategy testing is brilliant! A great feature for understanding the effect of a risk strategy on traffic.
Communication and involvement in any questions - are excellent!
Cons
It would be great to add a dashboard for tracking the scheme monitoring program.
Dispute Dashboard - to see how many cases were won/lost. how many cases were won in a month and losses from chargebacks.
Add the ability to test ML solutions from Checkout.com and custom rules (for example, 10% of the traffic to give ML to compare what is better).
Likelihood to Recommend
Checkout.com is great for those who want to increase productivity and authorization levels, regardless of payment volumes. Checkout.com will be a great solution for those who are thinking about fraud and chargebacks.
