Watch for hidden costs

Low headline prices can hide monthly minimums, per-user charges or revenue shares that grow as you grow. Ask for every cost in writing.

Check what is real

Ask to see the product working, not just slides, and check how the provider describes its licensed partners. Be wary of anyone who calls their platform a bank if it isn't one.
