Wave pros and cons

  • Provides free accounting tools and features, making it an accessible option for small businesses and freelancers with tight budgets.

  • Easy to use, intuitive interface that simplifies invoicing, expense tracking, and recurring billing for users without an accounting background.

  • Automates key accounting tasks such as bank reconciliations, recurring invoices, and transaction categorization, saving time and effort.

  • Allows seamless integration with bank accounts and imports transactions efficiently, streamlining financial tracking.

  • Poor customer service with slow response times, limited availability, and insufficient support, especially for non-paying users.

  • Issues with payment processing, such as funds being withheld, accounts being frozen, or payouts being delayed without clear explanations.

Don't expect ANY notice

Everything was great, but over-priced, until they decided to change business models and cut off my small business without notice. I was told I couldn't use them for payment services anymore, but I could still use the rest of their services... It made no sense. You can't get a hold of a person AT ALL! I had (briefly) considered using them for online banking services. When I didn't opt in, things changed. The chat line is not useful either. They can't/won't deal with anything besides tech ...

Customer support is horrible

Customer support is horrible. They've been charging our account with subscriptions we haven't been using and refused to refund when requested.

"Wave helped get my business started in one day"

What do you like best about Wave? Easy to use, affordable payment processing, and nice accounting tools. When I was looking for a low-cost way to bootstrap my business, Wave was clearly the number one choice. I was incoming payments within a day.

if you are small business don't use…

if you are a small business don't use this company.. we are a startup software company. paying wages to our staff is very difficult for us in this covid situation. and what they did last night they put a hold on my payments for 120 days and said their decisions are final. we had to pay salary to our staff with that money. they worked for a whole month for a service. And the client who paid us was paying since last 6 months on different payment platform. I as a CEO of a small software ...

My opinion and experience: a total scam/racket. Reporting to FCC and BBB.

Total scam/racket.Reporting to FCC. Heres how they scam you. You sign up. You invoice client. Client pays by debit using link on waveapp invoice. Cpl days later youll get auto email saying youre high risk and been declined from their system. Yet the money is in limbo.So you answer the email with the faded "please type above the line" comment that doesnt work. When they answer, its an auto response saying to look at Terms of Service. NO PHONE NUMBER EXCEPT ONE THAT RINGS FOREVER AND ANOTHER ...

I ordered a hot tub over 6 weeks ago…

I ordered a hot tub over 6 weeks ago for my son's birthday. Delivery was promised on the 21st June - stayed in all day and no notification and no hot tub. Website is very frustrating as you cannot talk to anyone or get any update - just a computer generated response which does not give you any information. Definitely will not be recommending this Company to anyone.........so disappointed and wish I had spent my money elsewhere
