The panel's verdict

PostFinance Checkout is PostFinance AG's card-acquiring offer, run through a back office tool, PAX card terminals and shop plug-ins. Its strongest scores are for settlement and reconciliation, which run 3-4: outpayment within two working days and central settlement of all payment methods in a single reconciliation file are stated on the captured pages, though we found no public information on a documented API or webhooks. Recurring billing scores 0-1, the lowest of any criterion — the billing pages document sending and receiving e-invoices, and the judges found no public information on charging a stored payment method again. Pricing transparency scores 1-2, with only promotional figures public: free registration in simulation mode, a 50 percent discount on a PAX card terminal under the POS-Bundle, and account and PostFinance Card annual fees waived for three years. Judges split on payment methods, which scored 2-3: some credited the single acquiring agreement and its named exclusions, others found the accepted methods themselves unnamed. Checkout and SCA and licence and account terms both scored 2; sovereignty scored 1-2 on little more than a Swiss contracting entity.

Report an error

Speaks for it

  • Outpayment within two working days is stated on the captured pages
  • All payment methods settle centrally in a single reconciliation file
  • Shop plug-ins support WooCommerce, Shopify, Magento 2, Shopware, Prestashop, OXID, Gambio and OpenCart, alongside PAX card terminals
  • Registration is free, with a simulation mode for testing before contracting
  • A PostFinance account is not necessary, per the vendor's pages

Report an error

Held against it

  • The only public pricing is promotional, and we found no public information on per-transaction rates for any method
  • We found no public information on card-on-file charges, mandates or subscription logic, with the billing pages covering e-invoice dispatch
  • We found no public information on 3-D Secure for merchants, SCA exemption handling, fraud screening or PCI scope
  • The captured pages name only the excluded methods — American Express, Lunch-Checks and ep2 gift cards — not the accepted set
  • We found no public information on a licence register, a chargeback and dispute process, or safeguarding of merchant funds

Report an error

Best for

  • You run a Swiss point-of-sale business and want one acquiring agreement with central settlement and outpayment within two working days
  • You already sell through WooCommerce, Shopify or another supported shop system and want to test in simulation mode before signing
  • You want card acceptance without taking a bank account with the provider — the pages state a PostFinance account is not necessary

Report an error

Avoid if

  • Your revenue rests on subscriptions charged to stored payment methods — recurring billing scored 0-1 and the captured billing pages document invoice dispatch
  • You need published per-transaction pricing to compare providers — the only public figures are promotional
  • You are switching acquirers against a deadline — the pages state the changeover can take up to a month and terminal providers may charge one-off fees
  • You sell exclusively online — the captured pages state the acceptance agreement is not applicable to payments in online shops, so confirm with the vendor which terms govern shop sales

Payment methods & local coverage

Show reasoning
How this is scored

Which methods a European customer can actually pay with — cards and wallets, SEPA Direct Debit, and the local methods that decide conversion per country — judged on the named list per market rather than on a method count.

0 — Not a payment acceptance product; customers cannot pay through it.

3 — Card payments with the major schemes, plus wallets such as Apple Pay or Google Pay.

5 — Cards and wallets plus SEPA Direct Debit and several European local methods (for example iDEAL or Wero, Bancontact, Klarna, EPS) listed by name.

8 — Broad EU coverage named per country with the countries and currencies each method serves — including methods such as BLIK, TWINT, Przelewy24, EPS and Wero — multi-currency acceptance with settlement currencies stated, and which methods support refunds and recurring charges documented per method.

10 — Coverage is documented as a matrix a merchant can plan against: every method with its countries, currencies, refund, partial-capture and recurring support, and the provider's own acquiring versus third-party routing stated per method.

Report an error

The Finance Lead

An acquiring agreement covers what the vendor calls the most common cashless payment methods, with PostFinance Card included and American Express, Lunch-Checks and ep2 gift cards named as excluded. The captured pages name no wallets, no SEPA Direct Debit and no local methods with their countries or currencies, so I cannot plan acceptance market by market from them. 2 3

Report an error

The E-Commerce Lead

The captured pages promise "the most common cashless payment methods in a single acquiring agreement" including PostFinance Card, with American Express, Lunch-Checks and ep2 gift cards named as excluded — a bundle described, not a list per market. I found no public information naming wallets, SEPA Direct Debit, or the local methods each of my countries actually uses, so I cannot plan conversion against it. Card acceptance through terminals and shop plug-ins is clear, which puts this at card acquiring with an unnamed method set. 2 3

Report an error

The SaaS Founder

Card acceptance is documented — a single acquiring agreement covering the most common cashless payment methods including PostFinance Card, taken through PAX card terminals and shop plug-ins for systems like WooCommerce and Shopify. The captured pages name no wallets, no SEPA Direct Debit and no local methods with their countries, and we found no public information on refunds or recurring support per method, so there is nothing here to plan cross-border billing on. 2 3 4

Report an error

The Payments Engineer

The captured pages sell an all-in acquiring agreement for "the most common cashless payment methods" including PostFinance Card, taken on PAX terminals, with only a named exclusion list (American Express, Lunch-Checks, ep2 gift cards). Beyond that no method is itemised per market, no wallet is named, and we found no public list of local methods or the countries and currencies each serves. 2 3 4

Report an error

The Compliance Officer

The captured pages show a single acquiring agreement covering "the most common cashless payment methods" including PostFinance Card, taken via PAX terminals and shop plug-ins, with American Express and other methods named as excluded from the agreement. I found no public information naming wallets, SEPA Direct Debit or local methods per market, so the per-country named coverage a merchant needs to plan against is undocumented. 2 3 4

Report an error

The Skeptic

A single acquiring agreement is offered for "the most common cashless payment methods" including PostFinance Card, with American Express, Lunch-Checks and ep2 gift cards named as excluded — but the accepted methods themselves are not named, and we found no public information on wallets, SEPA Direct Debit or per-country local methods. Card acceptance with a named exclusion list is all the captured pages document. 2 3 4

Checkout, SCA & fraud

Show reasoning
How this is scored

The path from basket to authorised payment under PSD2: hosted and embedded checkout options, 3-D Secure and SCA exemption handling, fraud screening, and what the provider documents about keeping legitimate payments from failing.

0 — No checkout or payment form; the product does not take a payment to authorisation itself.

3 — A hosted payment page or payment links with 3-D Secure.

5 — Hosted and embedded checkout options, 3-D Secure 2 with SCA handled by the provider, and fraud screening with configurable rules.

8 — SCA exemptions (low value, transaction risk analysis, merchant-initiated) applied and documented, the PCI DSS scope of each integration type stated, fraud tooling with rules and risk scores exposed to the merchant, network tokens or account updater, and liability shift explained per flow.

10 — Authorisation is engineered and shown: exemption strategy documented, soft-decline retry handled, authorisation-rate reporting by method and issuer country, and a checkout the merchant can run in their own domain while staying at the lowest PCI scope.

The back office tool takes payments through PAX terminals or shop plug-ins for WooCommerce, Shopify, Magento 2, Shopware, Prestashop, OXID, Gambio and OpenCart, with free registration and a simulation mode for testing. The captures say nothing about SCA exemptions, 3-D Secure in the merchant checkout flow or fraud screening; 3-D Secure appears only among private-customer quick tools on the homepage. 4 1

The E-Commerce Lead

The back office tool with plug-ins for WooCommerce, Shopify, Magento 2 and other shop systems, plus free registration with a simulation mode for testing, shows a real path from basket to payment. 3-D Secure appears only in a private-customers quick-tool list on the homepage, not in any merchant checkout documentation. I found no public information on hosted versus embedded checkout, SCA exemption handling, or fraud screening. 1 4

Report an error

The SaaS Founder

There is a real e-commerce path — shop plug-ins plus a back office tool, with free registration and a simulation mode for testing. But 3-D Secure appears only as a cardholder self-service tool on the bank homepage, and we found no public information on SCA exemptions, fraud screening or authorisation handling for the merchant flow. 4 1

The Payments Engineer

E-commerce collection runs through shop plug-ins for WooCommerce, Shopify and others, driven from a back office tool, and a free simulation mode lets you test before contracting — that last part I genuinely welcome. We found no public information on a hosted or embedded checkout flow, 3-D Secure or SCA exemption handling for merchants, fraud screening, or the PCI scope of each integration type. 4

Report an error

The Compliance Officer

The evidence shows an embedded path through plug-ins for WooCommerce, Shopify and other named shop systems, plus a simulation mode for testing, so a payment can be taken to authorisation in e-commerce.

Subscriptions & recurring payments

n/r n/r n/r n/r n/r Show reasoning
How this is scored

Charging the same customer again: card-on-file and merchant-initiated transactions, SEPA mandates, subscription logic and dunning — and whether the stored payment credentials can leave with the merchant.

0 — One-off payments only; the product stores no payment method for a later charge.

3 — Saved cards (card-on-file) charged again for repeat or recurring payments.

5 — Stored cards and SEPA Direct Debit mandates for recurring charges, merchant-initiated transactions, and subscriptions or scheduled payments with notification of failed payments.

8 — Subscription billing with trials, proration and plan changes, smart retries and dunning, card account updater, mandate management with pre-notification, and a documented process for exporting payment tokens to another provider.

10 — Recurring revenue is a first-class product: usage-based and invoice-based billing, dunning with measurable recovery, token migration in and out documented with a stated timeline and format, and recurring support stated for every local method that allows it.

The Finance Lead not rated — no public information

The Payments Engineer not rated — no public information

Settlement, reconciliation & API

Show reasoning
How this is scored

Getting the money and knowing what it was: payout cadence and currencies, fee itemisation per transaction, reports that match a bank statement, and an API and webhooks a team can build finance processes on.

0 — No merchant reporting: the product is a payment button or link with no dashboard, report or API.

3 — A dashboard of transactions and payouts, a stated payout schedule, and CSV export.

5 — The payout schedule stated, reports or exports that link each payout to its transactions and fees, and a documented API with webhooks and a test mode.

8 — Configurable payout schedules and settlement currencies, reconciliation reports that match bank lines, accounting integrations or exports named, a versioned API with idempotency and published rate limits, and a public status page with incident history.

10 — Finance can close the month from the provider's data: interchange and scheme fees itemised per transaction, automated reconciliation to the ledger, a deprecation policy for the API, and full historical data exportable after the contract ends.

Report an error

The Finance Lead

The payout cadence is written down — outpayment within two working days — and settlement of all payment methods lands in a single reconciliation file, which is the shape my close needs, with a free simulation mode for testing alongside it. We found no public information on fees itemised per transaction, a documented API with webhooks, or accounting exports, so the month cannot yet be closed from these pages. 2 3 4

Report an error

The E-Commerce Lead

"Speedy outpayment within two working days" and central settlement of all payment methods in a single reconciliation file are stated, which is a genuine start for finance. Beyond the back office tool, I found no public information on a transaction dashboard, CSV export, or an API with webhooks a finance team could build on. 2 3 4

Report an error

The SaaS Founder

Outpayment within two working days is stated, all payment methods settle centrally in a single reconciliation file, and there is a validation environment for payment files. No merchant API, webhooks, fee itemisation or accounting export is documented in the captured pages, so a finance team cannot build a process on it. 2 3 6

Report an error

The Payments Engineer

Payout within two working days and central settlement of all payment methods into a single reconciliation file are stated plainly, and there is both a simulation mode and a validation environment for payment files. We found no public documentation of a versioned API with webhooks and idempotency, rate limits, or a public status page, which is what I need before wiring finance processes to a provider. 2 3 4 6

Report an error

The Skeptic

Outpayment within two working days is stated on two pages, and all payment methods are settled centrally in a single reconciliation file. We found no public information on a documented API, webhooks, fee itemisation per transaction, or settlement currencies, so this stays below the anchor that requires an interface a finance team can build on. 2 3 4

Licence, risk & account terms

Show reasoning
How this is scored

Who holds the merchant's money under which licence, and what the contract lets the provider do on a bad day: freezes, reserves, termination, chargebacks. Scored on what the terms and the imprint state, not on reputation.

0 — The terms let the provider freeze funds or close the account at any time with no notice, reason or timeline.

3 — The regulated entity or the licensed partner behind the payments named, and a chargeback or dispute process described.

5 — The regulated entity named with its supervisor or licence type, the dispute process and chargeback fee published, and either safeguarding of merchant funds or a notice period for ordinary termination stated.

8 — Entity, supervisor, register number and passporting stated per country; safeguarding stated; reserve and rolling-hold conditions defined with limits and release timelines; freeze and termination terms with reasons and a route to appeal; PCI DSS level and attestation published.

10 — The bad day is written down: every regulated entity in the chain named with register links, reserve calculation disclosed, funds release timelines after termination committed, a documented complaint route to the supervisor, and exit terms that include handing back payment tokens and transaction history.

European sovereignty panel opinion

Show reasoning
How this is scored

Who the contracting and regulated entity is, and where transaction and cardholder data are processed and stored. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline. The card schemes are US-based for every provider, so the scheme layer is not held against any one vendor; the part the vendor controls is.

0 — Contracting entity and processing of payment data both shown to be outside the EU, with no transfer safeguard stated.

3 — A named contracting entity and a privacy policy or data processing agreement; the processing location of payment data not stated or partly outside the EU.

5 — An EU contracting or regulated entity, with EU processing of core payment data stated or a subprocessor list published, and a data processing agreement offered.

8 — EU entity and EU licence, payment and cardholder data processed and stored in the EU on named infrastructure, subprocessor list published with locations, and a DPA covering the processing the provider does as processor versus as controller.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: European ownership, EU entity and licence, every processing location and subprocessor European, European rails (SEPA, Wero or national schemes) offered alongside cards, and certifications published.

Pricing transparency

Show reasoning
How this is scored

Whether a merchant can compute the effective fee for their own mix of cards, countries and methods — including cross-border and currency conversion markups, chargebacks, refunds, payouts and monthly fees — from public pages alone.

0 — No public prices at all; every rate is a sales conversation.

3 — A headline rate published for one method or card type, or a "from" percentage.

5 — Rates published per main method with domestic and international cards distinguished, and any monthly or plan fee stated with its billing period; ancillary fees (currency conversion, chargeback, payout) may still be missing or "on request".

8 — Every method priced publicly, cross-border and currency conversion markups stated, chargeback, refund and payout fees listed, minimum monthly fees and contract term given, and whether the model is blended or interchange++ said plainly.

10 — Complete fee computability: the effective rate derivable for a given volume, card mix and country mix — interchange++ with the markup published or a blended rate with every exception listed — plus volume tiers, reserves and every ancillary fee on a public page.
