MoonClerk Reviews

Excellent payment processing tool

Pros:

I love that I am able to manually enter clients' details so that I can collect payment while I have my clients on the phone with me, increasing my conversion rates. I also appreciate being able to set up recurring billing and subscriptions. Also, the option for a monthly subscription that can be canceled at any time is helpful as a small business owner

Cons:

Not able to set multiple currencies or change the currency after a payment has gone through for future clients

Absolutely fantastic billing software, especially for payment plans

Comments: I use it to easily create payment links and manage all of my payment plans.

Pros:

Makes payment plan billing SO easy and integratable with Stripe. I love how easy it is to see recurring plans.

Cons:

Can get expensive as it is billed based on total processing fees monthly, but is still worth the money.

MoonClerk Does Not Measure Up

Comments: Works well to process credit cards, but their ACH is weak and so is their reporting function - making me do a lot of the work.

Pros:

MoonClerk is a credit card and bank ACH processing company similar to many on the market - the seem to handle that aspect of their business well. The setup is relatively straightforward and once get the hang of it the process is smooth, funding is quick and reporting is ok. I have not used their recurring invoicing function but assume it works like all the others on the market.

Cons:

They do not support many banks and so customers wanting to ACH payments find that it is very limiting - and since ACH is cheaper for the end-user than credit card processing, I, for one, push the ACH on my customers so I can save on processing costs. Reports are ok but need exporting to excel and then a lot of work goes into what I want to see - so they lack specific reports as defaults.

Great for recurring and complex billing or payment plans

Comments: Overall MoonClerk was a pleasure to use and helped my business collect recurring payment plans from customers. It integrated seamlessly with my existing payment processor and expanded their feature set.

Pros:

I like how easy it is to use MoonClerk with payment processors such as Stripe for my online consulting business, especially when it comes to create recurring payment plans with complicated conditions such as trial periods, changing frequency, and/or changing billing amounts

Cons:

There is nothing that I disliked about MoonClerk, all of it was very intuitive and easy to use

Great Way to Handle Recurring Payments

Comments: Overall, even with the way, they price their service we are very happy with them.

Pros:

I starting using Moon Clerk for one of our clients to take recurring payments and donations for their non-profit. The software is very easy to use and works really well. The integration with Stripe payments was a breeze and updating the website with the donation form was also very simple. Payments work flawlessly for us and we are very pleased with the service.

Cons:

Their pricing model is ideal for small to medium-sized non-profits that don't have a large dollar amount of recurring donations coming in. But once you get that doner dollar base up the pricing seems to get a bit steep. I could understand it if they priced based on the number of transactions, but they charge based on the dollar amount you run through it, so if you get just a handful of large transactions coming through it can eat into your revenues. Not a fan of the pricing model personally, it would be better to me if they priced based on recurring charge instead of an amount based on a block range you run through the system.

Easy and simple to setup, helps you automate your recurring billing

Comments: Overall I am happy with the product. If you want something quick and simple to setup and start streamling your billing, that's the one to go. If you have developers and wanted to build a very sophisticated billing system based on usage and add-ons with monthly or annual options with referral bonus, then Stripe is the way to go.

Pros:

Smith.ai has been using Moonclerk for almost 5 years and it's a very simple and easy way to charge your customers on a recurring basis. The Payment form is simple and has ALL the flexibility and options that you could imagine. You don't need to pay for a payment processor or merchant account, literally walk up and use. They even have very flexible coupon options for you to offer one time discount or recurring ones.

Cons:

Monthly fees are based on your revenue, so the fees could go up if you have large sales but I guess that's a good problem to have. Another one is API, I wish there's an API so that we can do some programmatic stuff to streamline some of our processes.

Wonderful for nonprofits

Comments: I've seen an increase in online giving because it is so easy and professional.

Pros:

MoonClerk was suggested to me by my website designer to set up automatic monthly donations through our website. I connect it with Strive, so I have two software systems. For donors, it is easy to give a one-time or monthly donation, and it only takes a minute to give! The customer support was great, and they walked me through how to add it on our website. I'm not a tech-person, but I was able to follow the instructions easily. It is on the our nonprofit's website, and doesn't take you to a third-party website. The fee is based off how many donations you receive.

Cons:

I had a donor that wanted to change the amount of her monthly giving, and that is something that I, as the administrator, had to do. There isn't a way for monthly donors to update their preferences.

Love the flexibility in payment options

Pros:

I've been using MoonClerk for several years. What I like the most about it is that it allows for a "pick your own price" model and it has flexible options like charging an additional one-time fee with recurring billing and delaying the initial charge to a specific date or after a trial period. The pricing is transparent and fair.

Cons:

There's really nothing not to like about Moonclerk.

Good but limited

Pros:

The ease of creating payment forms. Customer service. Serves it's purpose.

Cons:

Gets pricey the more you use it which doesn't make sense since the company is not doing anything different for the higher price. Also, wish the system more easily converted into a database of sorts, or at least mailchimp or an email funnel.

Makes getting paid way easier

Pros:

there are a lot of payment solutions out there, but we were looking for something that worked for our small company. This did the trick and we have no regrets about using it.

Cons:

no subscription option, which isn't a problem for us currently, but down the line it could cause some issues.

MoonClerk

Comments: This is used to bill clients. It also helps set up automatic payments from clients as well.

Pros:

I use this software for billing, it is easy to use and add clients into it. It is also easy to send a link to clients to set up their account.

Cons:

It feels a little out dated. The different views seem like they could be put in a more organized way.

Great for recurring billing

Pros:

This is a simple way to automatically charge customer credit cards on a recurring basis.

Cons:

The interface is a little outdated looking, and the features may be too simple for some.

Straightforward with low complication

Pros:

We were able to use this software through one of our websites to collect money for our fundraiser. Allows you to accept payments in different forms as well as international payments. Found it to be very easy to setup and use.

Cons:

Moonclerk prices vary by your volume of sales. As your sales start to increase, the price of the software does as well.

MoonClerks takes the hassle out of invoicing

Comments: I looked into several different recurring payment platforms, and this was the only one that offered what I needed without paying for a payment processor + merchant account. I'm glad I found it!

Pros:

I love having payments automatically charged to my website hosting clients. Before, I invoiced monthly and had to wait for them to decide they were ready to pay. It's such a time saver for both me and my client now.

Cons:

Setting up the Payment Forms took a little getting used to, but I got help with my use case and I'm set.

Not What I Needed

Pros:

Seems to have some decent integrations other platforms don't have and enables things like coupon usage.

Cons:

Had a struggle with getting moonclerk setup. My instance for some reason just didn't work, support was not able to resolve the issue and get it working.
