Have used BlueSnap for years and am satisfied

I've been using BlueSnap payment service for years and have been quite satisfied with them throughout the years.

That's not to say I wouldn't change anything at all. One thing I might change is bi-monthly payouts instead of monthly. Also, there seems to be an issue with customers not being allowed to use PayPal to pay if an affiliate is involved in the transaction. These things are relatively minor for me though.

Overall I'd give them 4.5 stars and round up to 5.

Bluesnap is the best at what they do RECOMMENDED

Bluesnap has been helpful and provides us with services for many of our customers with ZERO problems and a system and P2P we definitely recommend.

I look at the reviews and chargebacks occur when you as a company provide a service or product that is not what the customer wanted or you have not held up your end of the sale. this is not a Bluesnap issue. but your issue of poor service. We have no chargebacks as we provide what the customers want. I cannot thank Bluenap enough for supporting our business with such a great range of services in many countries.

Dealing with BlueSnap is an absolute…

Dealing with BlueSnap is an absolute nightmare as a merchant. They refuse to assist or respond to support tickets. Refuse to assist with chargebacks and always side with the buyer. Every contact with them results in a runaround that goes on for days. This is absolutely unacceptable.

Update: I've reached out to BlueSnap regarding this to their email address noted below. We'll see if we get a response or resolution on this.

Update #2: We replied to the chargeback and never got a response from BlueSnap. We keep getting the run around to contact Regpack regarding issues and that we cannot speak to BlueSnap directly. This is honestly getting to the point it's becoming pathetic. You respond here on the public form but refuse to respond via email. Look I get it Regpack gets a cut from every sale we do on BlueSnap from your higher than average transaction fees but we should at least get direct support without getting the runaround. Regpack is a software provider not the Merchant. The merchant should work directly with the customer and resolve outstanding issues.

The reason you have so many negative reviews is because you can't even resolve simple issues in a timely manner. This is absolutely pathetic.

Update 6/16:
Hi Kevin,

While we understand your frustration, our team responded to your questions regarding chargebacks in a timely manner. We explained the chargeback process, provided the appropriate links to you, and highlighted what information was required for your to provide to dispute the chargebacks. Since providing that information to you on two occasions we did not hear back from you or receive the requested information. Please contact us if you require further assistance in disputing your chargebacks please contact us at chargeback@bluesnap.com.

Thank you.

We are working with BlueSnap for over a year now and I must say this is the worst decision I ever made for my company!

They decided to reserve $7K with no alerts, no explanations and didn't agree to release it!

To make it clear our monthly revenue is 15K, and they took 7K in one month!

They expect us to make changes in our core system in one day, We don't have money to pay employees!

Hi Amit,

We looked into your account record, and we provided you with notice on Feb 13, 2020 of the reserve that would be placed on your account. The reserve was placed due to the disputes already received and the high risk of more disputes to protect you, your shoppers, and BlueSnap from the potential loss due to chargebacks. Additionally, we worked with you to enroll you in fraud alert services to help address the increase in disputes and even reduced your chargeback fee as we worked with you. We also offered to reduce your reserve if certain additional fraud prevention steps were taken. We provided you with the relevant documentation to do so in early April but still have yet to see those changes made by you.

We continue to be in contact with you and hope that we can work through the items mentioned above.

Company of scammers

Company of useless people

They contacted us back in order to re-evaluate our business that was refused because of the bad reviews one year before.

After 1 months of paperwork they declined even if they contacted us.

Stay far away from these timewasters, is better that they look at their bad reviews not to the review of their potential customers.

Richard their representative totally useless person.

Far away from this bunch of scammers!!!

Hi there,

We are sorry we are unable to support your business and apologize for any inconvenience or delays you experienced. Our sales team contacted you earlier this month to understand if circumstances had changed over the past year in such a way as to allow us to now support your business. Unfortunately, after our re-evaluation of the documentation and information you provided we continued to see indications that we could not support your business. Upon completion of that review, we communicated this to you as soon as possible.

If you want us to review your account again, please write to trustpilot@bluesnap.com and reference this review.

Our account has been suspended but ....

We are a customer of bluesnap since 14 months ago. Our account was suspended two days ago due to a mistake made by one of our team. We came today on this site to speak frankly, so honesty bluesnap is the best PSP we have dealt with, a wonderful support team and high-level developpers working in this company, in addition to the many payment methods available , i am really surprised at the negative reviews below, but I am sure that these have violated the terms and conditions of Bluesnap.
Unfortunately, we are forced to use another PSP at this moment, but we will always hope that we receive a message stating that the account was opened again, and we will not hesitate to return to using bluesnap again.
Thank you very much bluesnap for your professional dealing

Thanks for the kind review - we are sorry to hear that your account was suspended with us.

Based on the little contact information provided via the Trustpilot review platform, we were unable to trace your account in our records. Do you mind sending us a separate note with your account details to trustpilot@bluesnap.com so we can look into this for you?

Thanks!

Awful sales and support

Our team applied for a merchant account almost 3 weeks ago. We've had absolutely zero communication from the sales team, or anyone responsible for approvals. No indication of how long it will take, no request for further information. Nothing.

When contacting the support team, we only got vague responses about it being in progress, and they have since stopped responding.

At this point, I would not recommend Bluesnap. Their sales and support seems shockingly poor.

*update on BlueSnap's response here. After 3 weeks of no progress and being referred to various people who kept asking the same things, we dropped them.

BlueSnap is truly one of the worst companies I've ever dealt with. Stay away.

Funny blue snap answers to review

Funny blue snap answers to review, saying we have chargebacks... last chargeback was on November 11th last year, so for what potential chargebacks are you holding funds ? If there is no chargebacks anymore... second of all its a clear image that yous just dont want to give back money, yous try your best to make something up, but i will not stop till i get my funds, as this is nonsense. This company advertise on ecom empires, pretending that they accept dropshipping businesses and then tell you you broke there terms, they offer influencers to tell different information regarding what services they provide and then with there false advertising make you look like you broke some rules. Note they wait till you have more money in account then they block you!!! I will spread this word everywhere, one funny thing i know influencers personally that yous had advertised and we see what happens now ;) maybe good luck in your business

Hi there,

We are very sorry to read your review here. It seems as though the two reviews below could be related to the same account. Unfortunately, we are unable to verify your account details from this review, due to the lack of contact info you have provided via this site.

If related and based on the feedback below, we reinforcing that BlueSnap received a high volume of shopper complaints for non-delivery & lack of response from you.

You were also selling from a URL BlueSnap did not approve, so you were not compliant with our merchant agreement.

As a result your account, we had to take the necessary actions and suspend your account. Per our Agreement, we communicated to you that funds can be held for 6 months to cover refunds & chargebacks, longer if chargebacks continue. You should have received a notice that your account and remaining balance are under review. If you need to get in touch with us please reach out to trustpilot@bluesnap.com and someone from our risk and compliance team can walk you through the issues we have seen with your account.

We wish you the best of luck with your business.

Closed down our account put reserve on 38k and never received back, total fraud company. Making excuses to keep payments, which is illegal, by the law they cannot keep more than 180 days but they do it anyways. Need to report them everywhere and make sure nobody use them ever again.

Hi Nerijus,

Upon reviewing your account, BlueSnap received a high volume of shopper complaints for non-delivery & lack of response from you.

You were also selling from a URL BlueSnap did not approve, so you were not compliant with our Agreement.

As a result your account was suspended. Per our Agreement, funds can be held for 6 months to cover refunds & chargebacks, longer if chargebacks continue. You recently received a notice that your account and remaining balance are under review.

Due to these circumstances, BlueSnap still cannot process for you at this time. We wish you the best of luck with your business.

Hold Funds As much as they want.

Worst company i've ever dealt with. Put reserve on funds with no reason, just for having few chargebacks. ruined our business we had to close it down because they put reserve for 180 days and closed account so you cannot ever answer disputes or provide proof to win them. Reporting them to BBB. Who had similar experience advise to report them to BBB Total scam and fraud company.

Hi Nick,

Unfortunately due to little contact information provided via this review site, we are unable to track your account.

Based on the feedback you have provided, we presume that the reason your account has been shut down is due to disputes already received and the high risk of more disputes – because of this, we are required to hold a portion of funds to protect you, your shoppers and BlueSnap from the potential loss due to chargebacks.

If you want us to review your account again, please write to trustpilot@bluesnap.com and reference this review.

It deserves ZERO starts

It deserves ZERO starts. They became billing vendor for IM CREATOR. They sent me now the second email for a billing failure. No idea what the issue is. My card is good. The first time IMRS looked into it and resolved it although I don't know what they did since I am still using same card. The real issue is that there is no way to get in touch with support. They are NEVER there. You can send email, call and leave a message NO ONE EVER RESPONDS TO YOU.
There is no customer service whatsoever. They suck. Not good when there are live websites on the line and you can't get a problem resolved. Advice: if you are dealing with a company that turns their billing over to this clownshow of a company, run the other way. A simple 5 minute call to fix turns into a weeks of aggravation and it is not worth it. So I'm working on using another platform for my websites so I don't have to deal with this idiocy any longer

Great for Saas platforms

I have been using BlueSnap for a little over a year now. We built a custom integration, so the coding effort was a little intense, but they have all the functionality We need. I can’t speak about their support because we haven’t needed any! Deposits hit our bank account on time and their reporting is great - we know exactly what is going on with our sales.

Worst experience with a payment…

Worst experience with a payment provider!

I wish I read the comments here before working with Bluesnap. In the begining, I was so happy because my application is approved almost immadiately, and I started using their service.

I was doing Facebook Ads and started making sales immadiately. Then, the next day I scaled my ads but there was no sales at all. Then I suspected and checked my website's checkout page, BlueSnap was not working! I checked my mails, and I saw that they were saying my application is declined, there was not any explanation, and they just stopped processing, did not give any extra time for me to move to a new processor.

I lost so much money on Facebook Ads, but this is not the worst part. I wanted them to payout my sales. Customer support, Mark, said that I have no sales, so no payout. Then I sent him screen shot of my acoount balance in BlueSnap. Then he said that all of those sales will probably be refunded, so there will be no payout. I had so many transactions with the same website before and I got only one refund, zero chargeback.

I sent him 2-3 more mails but none of them are answered. I do not recommend at all.

Edit: What they say in the reply is totally true. After Mark did not answer me in couple days, I thought I will not get answer ever and wrote this review.

However, then Alfonso answered me, and did everything they say in the reply. I was appreciated with your answer but I still want to give 2 stars because even you decide to not work with a business, I think you should give them some time to find another payment processor. If they did not stop processing immediately, I would not lose money on advertisement.

Also, they offered me to send payout six months later if I send some documents. This does not make sense, even if I was scamming people, no one will apply for a chargeback 5 months later.

Hi Ismail,

Based on your feedback, we reviewed your account again. Our finding is that your business presents risk of a higher level of customer disputes than we allow. While we offered to pay you the funds, you did not provide the information requested to validate your identity and bank account for AML checks. Instead, we refunded all of your shoppers per our policy. We also found you sent a second application for the same business we already declined but with a different legal name. Unfortunately, BlueSnap still cannot process for you at this time. We wish you the best of luck with your business.

Awful customer service and don't waste your time or money

Awful customer service. After 2.5 years, they canceled our account with less than a day notice. It's actually par for the course given past experiences so I wasn't surprised, even if I was very disappointed. Left our business in a lurch.

Save yourself headache and heartache - find a different provider to work with.
