    The reviews are all over the place… generally speaking I don’t trust anything from Automattic these days, but most of the payment processing options for WooCommerce are terrible or released by small teams with rather poor maintenance and quality

    WooPayments: Integrated WooCommerce Payments

    Previouly have mostly just relied on Stripe, but features are limited

    I signed up for WooPayments expecting daily payouts as promised, but that’s not what happened. They withheld payouts and blamed it on “internal protocols” without clear communication or transparency. This wasn’t disclosed upfront, and their vague explanations feel murky at best. If I’d known this earlier, I would’ve gone with a different provider. I’m looking to switch to another payment gateway and sharing my experience so others don’t make the same mistake.

    Reviews like this are common with Woo trying to hold your money and not disbursing it. Really freakin shady if you ask me. Lots of excuses.
