Checkout.com, the leading global digital payments provider, was today named a ‘Strong Performer’ in The Forrester Wave™: Merchant Payment Providers, Q1 2024 report.

Checkout.com received a 5 out of 5 score in the payment performance optimization criterion.

Forrester’s report states that ‘Checkout.com is a great fit for merchants seeking a partner for digital-first use cases.’

“Since going live with Intelligent Acceptance, the authorization rate of payments processed on Checkout.com’s rails has increased by nearly 10%. In a game where small improvements drive big impact, this performance improvement is colossal for our business and, crucially, for our client’s bottom line”, said Melissa Pottenger, Head of Key Partnerships at Reach.

The Forrester report specifically stated that Checkout.com moves fast and is developer-friendly. Reference customers interviewed for the report cite the ‘configurability and quality of its reconciliation and settlement reporting, as well as its settlement speeds’ as particular strengths.
