## Reviews

### "smooth transfers to independent contractors" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *1 August 2018* | Education Management
> 
> **Pros**: no nonsense method of paying .  i like how fees are based on the amount sent, as opposed to a flat rate
> 
> **Cons**: supposedly the product I will use will be ended in November. It was difficult to get a clear determination about that via customer support. didn't seem like they were reading the question i asked.

### "API was too granular. Customer service was fantastic." — 4.0/5

> **Anoop** | *19 March 2019* | Farming | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Was able to get transfers working the way we needed it to work.
> 
> **Cons**: Not enough abstraction. Was exposed to - and had to deal with - too much detail. The API was waay too granular. On each "webhook", had to do multiple calls to the api to resolve various attributes associated with the transaction. Biggest issue was that it took some doing to resolve subsequent webhooks to find out which "parent" transaction the webhook was for.
> 
> The customer service was fantastic. Shoutout to @coolstorycory.

### "Dwolla Product Review" — 3.0/5

> **Austin** | *29 June 2022* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I can see who the transactions are made for.
> 
> **Cons**: No ability to download reports from platform. Unable to search for transactions on the initial dashboard.

### "Dwolla Review Nick Day" — 5.0/5

> **Nicholas** | *28 November 2020* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Dwolla is the payment software I use to receive and send payments for work related services. We pay contractors and part time employees through Dwolla as it is easier to keep track of.
> 
> **Cons**: If dwolla could transfer money quicker that would be better because currently it takes about a week after your payment gets submitted to see it in your bank.
> 
> Dwolla has been great in the four years I have been using it as our payment software.
