## Key features

- **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.

- Companies that sell through resellers as well as direct

## Worth knowing

- 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.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace Nexway you would be making selling as the merchant of record, so sales tax and VAT are handled everywhere. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 45 of the 50 other tools for selling digital products grade higher.

- You could make: Invoicing: an app builder makes this well.
- You could not: Selling as the merchant of record, so sales tax and VAT are handled everywhere.
- You could not: Checkout, card payments and sales tax handled for you.
- You could not: Every click and sale traced back to the right partner.
- You could not: An API that other software can build on.
- You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
