Which checkouts and payment types does Avendo support in every industry?
The same rules apply across all six verticals. Avendo supports e-commerce, card-not-present transactions through custom-cart checkouts. WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and Magento may need a compatibility review. Stores built on Shopify, Wix, Square, or GoDaddy, and in-person or point-of-sale payments, cannot be onboarded yet. Avendo says it is working toward supporting them.
That makes the right question for any business simple: what share of your card revenue happens online, on a checkout Avendo can connect to? The larger that share, the more per-transaction competition between processors can add up. The processing costs page has a calculator to put a number on it, and the low cost credit card processing guide explains the model in full.
Common questions
See all 46 questions in the FAQ- Who can apply for Avendo?
- Avendo is built for businesses that take payments online: e-commerce stores, online subscriptions, SaaS companies, and memberships. It also lists online coaching and consulting, digital businesses, recurring-service businesses, and repeat online purchases as good fits. Businesses processing meaningful card-not-present volume tend to benefit most from per-transaction competition.
- Does Avendo support in-person payments?
- Not yet. Avendo currently handles e-commerce transactions only and cannot onboard in-person, card-present, or point-of-sale businesses. Avendo says it is working toward supporting them. Businesses that need card terminals should keep a POS provider for their in-person sales in the meantime.
- Can I use Avendo with Shopify?
- Not today. Avendo cannot currently onboard stores built on Shopify, Wix, Square, or GoDaddy, and lists Shopify and Wix as waitlist platforms. Custom carts are supported, and WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and Magento may require a compatibility review before onboarding.
- Can restaurants use Avendo?
- Restaurants can use Avendo for online payments, such as orders placed on their own website, catering deposits, online gift card sales, and food products shipped to customers. Avendo cannot onboard in-person or point-of-sale businesses today, so dine-in and counter payments on a terminal stay with a POS provider for now.
- Does Avendo work for fitness studios?
- Yes, for payments taken online. Memberships and online subscriptions are both supported business types, so a studio's recurring membership charges, online class pack sales, and program sign-ups can be routed through Avendo. Card payments taken on a front-desk terminal are in-person transactions, which Avendo cannot support yet.
