Doesn't work

I spoken with the paystack team now, they said its a bug on their side and will fix it. 3 months later they say its fixed. Still doesn't work.

Response from Paystack

Hi Jaco, thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry for the confusion and frustration you've experienced. We understand how important it is to have clear communication, especially when you're counting on a feature to work. In this case, the issue you encountered was due to a feature that the current version of the app doesn't support, rather than a bug. We're currently working on it, and it should be available soon. We’ll be sure to share updates as soon as it’s live. We really appreciate your patience and for bringing this to our attention. It’s helping us build a better experience for everyone.

Bugs and poor support

The Paystack integration with Xero is not stable and has bugs. We're currently left stranded where card payments don't work through Xero invoice with poor response from Paystack to resolve this

Response from Paystack

Hi Adrian, thank you for your feedback, and we're really sorry for the experience you had with the Paystack integration for Xero. We understand how important it is for your payments to work reliably, and we're deeply sorry this wasn't the case for you. Since your report, we’ve identified and fixed the bugs that were affecting the app, and we’ve made several improvements to ensure a more stable experience moving forward. We appreciate you bringing the issue to our attention, and apologize for the time it took to resolve.

Easy payments and setup, but needs a bank feed

Definitely a 5 out of 5 for me in terms of setup (took 5/10m), customer experience, debit orders/subscriptions, look/feel in the dashboard and payments showing in the main business account, however a bank feed would be a amazing for a full five out of five.

Response from Paystack

Hi Kyle, thanks for the fantastic review! We're delighted to hear about your positive experience with the app's setup, customer experience, and functionality. Your suggestion for a bank feed has been shared with our development team, and we'll let you know once this feature is available. We're constantly working to improve based on user feedback like yours. Thanks again for your support and for choosing our app!
