What problems is 2Checkout Monetization Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?
Processing the volume of payments we receive, provisioning licenses, processing refunds, etc., is a big job, and we simply don't have the expertise to do it ourselves.
Also, we have customers all around the world. Taking payments from them directly would require taxation expertise that we don't have in-house. (e.g. Which countries or states charge sales tax, and which don't.) Because 2Checkout takes all the payments on our behalf, they handle all tax compliance issues. This also drastically reduces our bookkeeping and accounting complexity and costs, as we're receiving only one payment per month.
Finally, we really like the conversion optimization service, which allows us to continuously improve our checkout page based on real-world (AB test) data. It's a paid service, but the fee is reasonable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
