Reviews

We have experienced significant issues with the plugin designed for PostFinance integrations since a long time. Despite our efforts to highlight these concerns, alongside other companies, to PostFinance's senior management, problems persist. The plugin struggles to stay updated with WooCommerce, leading to frequent issues on client websites after updates. We suggest revisiting the choice of service providers for these critical components. Switzerland is home to many reputable companies with a proven track record of reliability and expertise, which could substantially improve the service quality. It's disappointing to see these challenges continue, especially given PostFinance's reputation. Additionally, it's worth noting that Wallee, previously known as CustomWeb GmbH, has historically faced criticism for its support and development of WordPress plugins. Prompt action to address these matters would greatly benefit the security and efficiency of websites linked to PostFinance.

Fehlerhaftes Plugin, schlechter SupportNicht mal die Kassenseite funktioniert mehr, gibt nur 404 aus und im Backend kommt seit Wochen nur die Info:“A version of the PostFinanceCheckout plugin is yet to be released for this version of WooCommerce.”

Plugin is rarely updated, always beyond WooCommerce version. Errors happening during payment, no support available. Is there an alternative plugin to handle PostFinance with WooCommerce?

Every time there's an update, something doesn't work. Problems don't get fixed for weeks. The company seems totally overwhelmed. I don't know why the swiss Post is partnering with this company. We're thinking about ending the collaboration.

In den letzen 10 Jahren, sehe ich, sie haben keine Fortschirtte gemacht; Immer vielen bugs und lange Fixierungszeiten. Sie ruinieren Geschäfte. Ich bedaure, dass PostFinance AG nur mit diesem Unternehmen zusammenarbeiten. PostFinance bitte ein alternativer Partner (wie z. B. Mame Software Development) sobald wie möglich finden, ansonst werden wir ab Januar 2024 gezwungen sein, Ihre PostFinance Card / E-Finance Zahlungsmethode unter unserem Online Shop aufzugeben.

customer service does not respond to emails, the customer interface is an incomprehensible maze, moreover whatever happens it is always the customer the customer who is the moron . In short, avoid Postfinance!
