Truvora vs. Braintree
Braintree has a solid API, but it's a PayPal company with premium per-transaction pricing and support that can be slow when it matters. Truvora gives you a full payments platform with billing and invoicing included, one lower flat rate, and real human support. Here's exactly how the two stack up.

A flat rate below Braintree's 2.59% + $0.49

Why teams pick Truvora over Braintree
The API is capable. The rate, the included billing, and the support aren't the same.
A lower flat rate with fewer add-on fees
Braintree's 2.59% + $0.49, plus cross-border and currency fees, pushes most teams to a 3.0%-3.5% effective rate. Truvora is a flat 2.6% + $0.25 with transparent cross-border pricing, so more of every transaction stays with you.
Billing and invoicing built in, not bolted on
Braintree covers core processing well, but subscriptions are basic and invoicing and revenue recognition aren't included. Truvora ships a full developer-first API with subscriptions, invoicing, and ASC 606 revenue recognition out of the box.
Support that answers in hours
As a PayPal company, Braintree support can mean long queues and slow escalations. Every Truvora account gets human support with a median response measured in hours and a migration specialist to help you switch.
