Pros & Cons

nowpayments

Pros

  • Non-custodial model — funds settle straight to the merchant's own wallet
  • Broad coin support with auto-conversion
  • Flat, published fee structure (0.5% direct / 1% with conversion)
  • Ready-made checkout plugins for WooCommerce, Shopify, PrestaShop, and Magento 2 plus a documented REST API
  • Actively serves higher-risk verticals many mainstream processors decline outright

Cons

  • Operating entity incorporated in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, a lightly-regulated offshore jurisdiction
  • No publicly disclosed subscription/volume-tier pricing — larger volumes 'may' unlock lower fees only on request
  • Quoted 0.5%/1% fees exclude underlying blockchain network/gas fees
  • Limited public detail on dispute/chargeback handling, notable given crypto payments' typical irreversibility
  • Inconsistent supported-coin counts across its own marketing pages (350+ vs 75+)
