I own a mid size retail business and I've dealt with 4 other processors from attempts to sell, onboard, and being within contract. Stax is the best and most professional by far. Don't waste your day... See more

I was fortunate enough to have Nick Kagy contact me very shortly after I inquired about credit card processing. He was personable and polite and quite knowledgeable regarding my situation and offered me several solutions to choose from. I selected the one I deemed appropriate for my business and look forward to working with Stax! Nick’s attentiveness to my needs was the number one reason I chose Stax. You have a valuable asset in that young man!

Do not recommend Stax

My small business was the vicim of a cyber attack on our payment system and Stax shut down our payment processing despite explaining the full situation to them. It has now been almost a month of being unable to accept transactions or process refunds for our customers.

Stax is very slow to respond (does not call when we book an appointment, even though we were told to book an appointment), keeps handing the issue to other customer service reps, and refuses to escalate it to anyone higher up to help.

We will be canceling our account in full with Stax and have moved to a different payment processor. Do not work with them if you want to actually be able to handle transactions without any issues.

Patient Care Coordinator

I have been calling the STaX customer service line frequently, as STaX is still fairly new to our clinic and my team and I are continuing to learn and navigate the program.

During one of my recent calls, I had the pleasure of working with Mariely. She was incredibly kind, patient, and helpful. She took the time to thoroughly address all of my questions and concerns and guided me through the process step by step. Her support made a significant difference, and I am truly grateful for her assistance.

Thank you for having such a knowledgeable and compassionate team member available to support your clients.

Communication

Stax has been great, and we have really appreciated using your services over the past two years. However, recently when trying to get support or assistance, it has been difficult to get help. I would really like to continue using your service, but I may not have a choice but to consider switching to a different company if this issue persists.

I just wish customer service would be more willing or able to assist when issues arise. Overall, we have never had a problem, but when I look for answers now, it seems there is no one available to take calls and emails are the only option. It’s unfortunate, because we really do not want to change companies . Stax is a critical part of running our business. Serenity Psychiatry and Wellness.

He never lost patience and always pushed forward until we got exactly what we needed to get.
Any organization would be extremely lucky to have him.
