I really like Odoo’s free product, and it’s a great option for small vendors who really don’t need more than a single app to sell at places like farmers’ markets. If you’re a small business that’s just starting out and you don’t want any set-up issues, you probably want to look at a different company.

Grasshopper’s SBA lending earns a very respectable overall rating of 4.2 out of 5 stars. We love that it is an SBA Preferred Lender with a fast and easy application that can help you determine if you qualify for funding in just minutes. While the process is lengthy (as is typical for SBA loans), Grasshopper makes it as pain-free as possible by providing exceptional customer support along the way.

If you have a low-risk, low-volume business and send out a limited number of invoices per month, Wave is a pretty good bet, as long as you don’t need to accept in-person payments. And if you’re an existing Wave user or a freelancer/sole proprietor who already makes use of Wave’s accounting tools, using Wave’s payment processing services is a no-brainer.

If you are looking for an Employee Of Record company to take charge or help you grow your global team, Remote is definitely worth checking out. We appreciate that the pricing model is transparent and clear — all costs should be accounted for before you sign your contract.

US Bank Merchant services offers a solid array of credit card processing solutions, including a full merchant account with a dedicated support representative, flat-rate pricing with a free plan option and month-to-month contract, same-day funding for US Bank business banking customers, and thousands of physical branches across the company. That being said, there are complaints about its POS partner, talech, and especially about its backend processor, Elavon.

While we wish U.S. Bank offered more information on its fees, eligibility requirements, and company security policies, what we do know is that U.S. Bank has a large number of helpful expense management features, unique travel features and perks, 1x rewards points, and a big selection of redemption options that definitely make U.S. Bank worth considering.
