  ### 9. Process your debit and credit cards.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Julie A. | Corporate Social Respponsibility Senior Associate, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 27, 2019

**What do you like best about Moneris Gateway?**

Using Moneris has me to get rid of all the worry for a third party involvement in processing my cards. It is a great payment platform because it is a direct processor I do not have to worry even if my payments are held or my account is frozen. It is very easy to access I can even use it on my iPad as it turns into  POS terminal this helps me in processing but also to keep a track and manage customer information.

**What do you dislike about Moneris Gateway?**

It is a great platform but very expensive and sometimes not in the affordable range. I don’t they have deducted terminal fee directly from my account without giving any kind of information on notification before deducting it.

**What problems is Moneris Gateway solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Provide me with different scalable options have helped in my business to grow. I find that the customer support response of this platform is very very good and available 24/7 because I had great help from them when I was starting it out and did not know how to use this platform perfectly.

  ### 10. Poor documentation and support for web integration

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Leisure, Travel & Tourism | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 18, 2020

**What do you like best about Moneris Gateway?**

It may be good solution for terminal payments but I have no experience.

**What do you dislike about Moneris Gateway?**

They provide poor documentation and support.

**Recommendations to others considering Moneris Gateway:**

I cannot recommend Moneris for complex web integrations.

**What problems is Moneris Gateway solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Very poor support. I'm waiting days without response on the community forum. Also, no response to my e-mail sent to support.
Good providers of paid software moderate their community forums and provide answers. But, most questions on Moneris product forum are not answered (including questions posted years ago).

  ### 11. Quick and easy setup, reliable payment processing

**What problems is Moneris Gateway solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Problems we had were processing card transactions with a system that was familiar to consumers yet modern. We wanted our customers to feel comfortable with providing a payment to us, with Moneris this was not a problem.

Search functions were often strange and you had to guess on key words. While the surface product was easy the deeper functions were often complicated and we had to spell out every click to trainees.

Moneris is used for us as a POS and inventory system.
