Reliable, Secure, and Easy to Use
My overall and overwhelming experience with this software is positive.
Pros
Affinipay payment processing is reliable, secure and easy to use. On the rare occasion that I need to contact support, service is always fast, friendly and accurate.
Cons
No real cons from my perspective. I've used Stripe in another situation and the one feature I preferred in Stripe was knowing what exact payments were coming in on what day.

Pros
unfortunately, there is not much I like about the website and looking up transactions. It super time consuming with going back to each page and then finding the date again and then clicking on each transaction to see the member company so that I can enter the invoice.
Cons
While monthly reconciliation this would be a technology issue that would need some tweaking. While reconciling every month the transactions only show the person's name and not the Company that the name is associated. So I have to click on every transaction to see which member company it is for (I am a wild apricot user for our membership) and then when I hit the back button it takes me all the way to the first transaction and then I have to filter back to the one that I was looking at. It would nice if the company name that is associated with wild apricot would reflect.

Stacey, if you have time we would love to try to help you simplify your reconciliation processes so that it is smoother for you. We would love to help when you have some time, 800-485-6455.

Makes my work so much easier!
My experience with Affinipay has been excellent.
Pros
It's so easy for our members to use! I rarely get complaints or have issues arise. Customer support is excellent.
Cons
We changed the way we do our reporting, but it was not a difficult process. My only issue is sometimes the reports don't match the bank statements at the end of the month if deposits haven't yet been processed. Not a big deal though!

Kim-
Thank you for the raving review. We are pleased that we are helping you get your work done! Because deposits can take 2 business days to post, end of the month deposits can post into the next month. This is not unique to AffiniPay.
Please reach out if you need us for anything.

We love using Affinipay for Associations!
Pros
Affinipay is SO user friendly and streamlined. It's easy to process payments, provide refunds, and see transaction reports. It's clean, organized, and intuitive. We switched over from a more complicated platform and it's been a breath of fresh air to use Affinipay.
Cons
I wish we had an easy way to take in person payments at our conference with a credit card swiper that connects to the platform. Perhaps there is a physical credit card swiper and I just haven't obtained one yet.
Response from Affinipay for Associations
Lauren,
Thank you for your feedback. I have great news for you you! AffiniPay has a card reader available. Even better, there is a card reader built in to the app so that you do not need to keep up with an external device. We are happy to tell you more. Please reach out when you have time! 800-485-6455

Affinipay has everything I need!
One of the things I appreciate most about Affinipay is that it seems to always work for me when I have members specifically from China and Greece that have issues making payments via our website. I've almost always been able to manually take care of those transactions via Affinipay. The time this saves me in not having to come up with another option for payment is invaluable.
Pros
I find Affinipay extremely easy to use and it has all the features that I'm looking for in payment options. I can send a quick bill, see the status of that bill at a glance, and very easily look up previous transactions. Affinipay has made my job so much easier.
Cons
For my purposes, there is nothing that I feel is missing. It has everything I need!
Response from Affinipay for Associations
Kathy- This is all great news and we are happy to hear it! No contact with customer service is just like 5 stars - AffiniPay works and lets you move on to more important things!

Affinipay & The Electrical Council of Florida - Business at it's best!
Pros
ECF is a Florida Electrical Contractor trade association that offers members reliable industry updates, communication services, ongoing educational training, and leadership. The key to providing all these services is planning, efficiency, and good management. That's where Affinipay becomes the business partner that helps make everything happen. From beginning to end ECF doesn't have to worry about payment, posting, and follow-up on all debit/credit card payment transactions.
Cons
After the initial 'learning curve' how-to use the software period, we have had no problems adjusting to using Affinipay and find it a dependable, stable asset to our financial planning and monthly reconciliation.
Response from Affinipay for Associations
Nena-
Thank you for your descriptive and thorough review. We are glad to be your partner and look forward to the continued partnership with you and ECF.

Turnkey solution for associations of all sizes
Implementation of installment payments through Affinipay has had the greatest impact over the past 12 months. Also, they are an excellent business partner through our member benefit program.
Pros
Affinipay is a robust platform with all the features that any association needs. It seamlessly integrates with the association platform making dues collection, event registration and sponsorship payments so simple. The affordibility for the product cant be beat. Affinipay knows the business of associations which makes them a great partner.
Cons
Ability to create custom pages on the user back end rather than going through support. Although support is very quick!

Ease of Use
Pros
The simplicity of the program - it is easy to follow and understand. The most important feature is its customer support/service. I have been in this program for more years than I care to remember and I am always amazed at the ability to get a real person when I need one and the quick turnaround in solving my problem.
Cons

Affinipay Review
Affinipay is a great company to work with and I would recommend them to other associations.
Pros
Affinipay is very user friendly and easy to navigate. Processing credit card payments is very easy no matter whether we are processing payments in the office, remotely or in-person. The majority of of membership dues and event registrations are paid by credit card. Customer service has always been great. When ever we have had to call or email we have received very timely responses and help with resolving any issue that may have come up, which very rarely happens. Great product. All of our Regions also use Affinipay for payment processing. It is an easy product that links with our AMS and any third party that we work with.
Cons
At this time I don't have any areas that I think need to be improved.
Response from Affinipay for Associations

My Affinipay Journey
Affinipay enables our busy members to pay their dues and register for events easily without having to go through so much to accomplish their payments.
Pros
It is so easy to use on an administrator side and the customer service is superb! I know I can always reach out to someone and I'll get the help I need.
Cons
Maybe on the reports side of things. Sometimes I am searching for ways to better query reports but eventually I find what I'm looking for. Wish the system would also tell us who the payment is for - in other words, an admin may pay with their company card but they are not the actual member - would be nice to see the member's name on the transaction itself on the reports.
Response from Affinipay for Associations
Selina,
Thank you for your thoughtful review. The information displayed in our system is relative to the information shared by our partner, in this case YM. From time to time these integrations are updated with improved data transferred from our partner.

Review of Affinipay System
This is a good product which is managed very well.
Pros
Your customer service group. I can call at any time and talk with a PERSON and not have to go through an automated attendant to do so. Also, the customer service group knows their stuff - they always have or will get me an answer in a very short amount of time. Great group!
Cons
Reporting process for automatic payments.

Affinipay is Simple to Use with Pristine Customer Service
It has been a pleasure to use the Affinipay software. It's easy to use and gives us all the data we need. Even more important is the expert live customer service which is almost like a personalized concierge service. This is a great feature. Would recommend it easily and with confidence as Affinipay has exceeded our expectations.
Pros
Affinipay's biggest feature is its simplicity and ease of use. Love the admin page which details all activity. It's so easy to bill or receive money. They also provide custom landing pages for various fundraising initiatives. We find this feature extremely helpful. Lastly, their customer service is very efficient and accountable in a timely manner. Always a real person to deal with and always courteous and professional.
Cons
So far we have been happy with Affinipay as is.

Ease of use and tracking outstanding
Outstanding product as our organization serves people throughout the US and is secure enough for our members to feel that they can use safely when paying for products and dues
Pros
I love the ease of downloading daily reports of our online/credit card payments. The customer support has been outstanding whenever concerns or questions have arose.
Cons
Unable to tap open a daily report from the monthly deposit report. It would be outstanding to be able to link over especially when downloading several daily deposit reports
Response from Affinipay for Associations
Hi Karen,
Thank you for your review. There is a way to see transactions included in a daily deposit directly from the monthly deposit report. We would be happy to show you, if that is what you are referring to.
Please reach out if we can assist further. I am going to pass along your feedback.

Our review
Pros
We like the fact that it is embedded in our own website payment page, no need to take the payer to a separate website.
Cons
The monthly summary statement is too complicated.
Response from Affinipay for Associations
Marco- Thank you for your review. The monthly summary statement has a ton of information on it that makes it seem quite complicated. The statements are generated to fit the needs of accounts of all sizes and all pricing plans. Therefore, some of the information on the statement might not pertain to your individual account type. We are rolling out some new statements later this year. I hope they better meet your needs.
Cheers!

Math Teachers Use Affinipay
Using Affinipay has been seamless. It’s easy to search for a transaction and do a refund. It’s easy to see when a transaction failed. It’s a great system.
Pros
I love the daily transactions reports function! This feature saves me so much time during bookkeeping. On the days that transactions are made, I run the report and then I can quickly determine whether dues, registration for the conference, or an exhibit fee payment was made.
Cons
Sone tones the reports print off the edge of the page and sometimes they don’t. I would like to see a pdf download choice.
Response from Affinipay for Associations
Hi Cynthia,

Credit card processing made simple
Pros
The key features I need for processing credit card transaction and issuing refunds are simple to use. The Affinipay site is laid out well and very responsive. But perhaps most important is that if I need support it is easy to access and high quality.
Cons
Honestly nothing - it just works the way it's supposed to. No complaints!

AffiniPay works for us
Pros
AffiniPay integrates well with our current online CRM/AMS software. Customer support from AffiniPay is better and more responsive than most vendors were use.

Perfect for us
Pros
We don't necessarily have high volumes of transactions, but I love how easy it is to take entries in our QuickBooks spreadsheet and match them up to transactions on the Affinipay dashboard and categorize the type of purchase was made. If a refund is ever requested, I can quickly search by the customer's name and issue a refund with one click and make them happy in a very small amount of time.
Cons
No major complaints. I would like the ability to CC people on credit card receipts, since sometimes the person making the purchase wants a receipt forwarded to their business manager.
