2Checkout vs Nexway (2026): which should you pick?

Pick 2Checkout if

• Fits if you sell software or SaaS to buyers in many countries
• Works for teams with developers who will use the API and webhooks

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want a published fee, as it is only in your contract
• Not for you if you sit in or sell from restricted places such as Cuba, Iran, North Korea or Syria
• Tight if your payouts are small, since resellers need a $100 minimum and other accounts $50
• Watch out: the main site answered our reader with a bot check, so the card follows its documentation

Pick Nexway if

• Fits if you run a mid-size or large software, gaming or media business
• Works for vendors selling in Europe, North America and Asia that want one merchant of record

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you run a high-risk business, sell physical goods or regulated products, as all are listed as unsupported
• Not for you if you are an early-stage micro-business, since support is listed as limited
• Watch out: the revenue share is not published, so you cannot compare it before talking to sales
• Watch out: it sells to your customers, so its name appears on their statements

2Checkout

• No prices are published in anything we could read: the docs say the margins and fees are in each merchant's signed contract.
• The main 2checkout.com pages answered with a bot check, so pricing and feature pages could not be read; facts here come from the documentation site.
• Payouts need a minimum balance of $50, £50 or €50 on 2Sell and 2Subscribe accounts, and $100, £100 or €100 for resellers on 2Monetize.
• Merchants in, or selling products from, restricted jurisdictions such as Cuba, Iran, North Korea and Syria cannot use it.

Nexway

• No prices are published: Nexway works on a revenue share and gives a custom quote.
• It lists high-risk industries, physical goods and regulated products as unsupported.
• Early-stage micro-businesses are listed as limited support.
• As merchant of record it sells to your customers, so its name appears on their statements.

2Checkout

Hosted checkout and buy links

The ConvertPlus cart takes buyers through a hosted checkout from a generated buy link, and an InLine cart can open on the seller's own page. Product details can also be passed in through URL parameters.

Payment methods and currencies

The docs say the platform accepts more than 45 payment methods and more than 100 display and billing currencies.

Subscription billing

Handles recurring plans, trials, renewals and upgrade orders, with a renewal flow for returning customers.

Three account types

2Sell covers one-time and recurring sales, 2Subscribe adds subscription management tools, and 2Monetize is the package aimed at digital goods sellers.

Customer portal and reporting

Buyers get a myAccount portal to see orders, manage subscriptions and request refunds. Sellers get reports, accounting views and payout settings in a control panel.

Developer tools

A REST API, webhooks and the 2Pay.js library are documented, and every new account starts in a demo mode for test orders.

Nexway

Merchant of record

Nexway says it assumes legal responsibility for VAT and sales tax on each sale, and handles invoices without a local entity on your side.

Global payments

Localized payment methods and multi-currency checkout, with no local bank accounts needed according to its pricing page.

Subscription management

Recurring billing with smart retries and automation for recurring revenue, listed as built in rather than a third-party tool.

Fraud and chargebacks

Fraud prevention and dispute handling. The pricing page says chargeback costs and dispute management are absorbed by Nexway.

Reseller portal

A separate Reseller Portal supports B2B sales and distribution networks, alongside a modular ecommerce platform.

Customer care

Localized customer support is offered as a solution, along with custom development for specific business needs.
