Braintree vs WePay: What are the differences?

Developers describe Braintree as "Accept payments in your app or website today". Braintree replaces traditional payment gateways and merchant accounts. From one touch payments, to mobile SDKs and international sales, we provide everything you need to start accepting payments today. On the other hand, WePay is detailed as "The easiest way to accept payments". WePay helps people sell tickets to events, send invoices, sell items online, and accept donations online. WePay also provides an API that allows developers to access its payments platform.

Braintree and WePay can be categorized as "Payment Services" tools.

Some of the features offered by Braintree are:

  • Simple pricing with no minimums- Pay only for what you use, with no minimum monthly volume, at the simple US pricing rate of 2.9% + $.30 per transaction.
  • An API developers love- Integrate your app with our API over a cup of coffee.
  • We support your business model- Subscriptions or one-off, mobile or web, local or global, our platform adapts.

On the other hand, WePay provides the following key features:

  • Online Invoicing- Send custom, professional invoices to your customers. Customers receive an email and can pay online.
  • Itemization- Get paid for all your work. Itemize your invoices so customers know exactly what they're paying for.
  • Recurring Invoices- Save time by sending recurring invoices online. Automatically send invoices weekly, monthly, quarterly, or annually.
Decisions about Braintree and WePay

Stripe was made with developers in mind first so the extensibility of it is great! This makes it very easy for us to integrate and automate as much as we need with its APIs and SDK. It allows a lot of customization of exactly what we need to build our applications. They also manage all of our customers from a tax and accounting perspective which makes it easy from a business standpoint.
