Charge

Charge is a software company that provides customized solutions to develop digital platforms to enhance financial security for users. Put simply, it is about accepting cards, bank transfers and wallets online or in person.

Who is it for? Mostly any business that takes money. They also list Mobile Payments and Transaction Processing, so expect those to show up in the feature set. They are a small team, 11 to 50 people, which usually shapes who they work with. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

Charge is based in Manhattan Beach, California. Their site is charge.io.

Things worth asking about: rates, payout timing, chargeback handling, and developer tools. Get the renewal terms in writing before the first invoice.

If you have worked with Charge, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
