Avendo's main website is avendo.tech, credit card processing for e-commerce.

Small business owners searching for credit card processing companies face a long list of providers and pricing models, and little time to compare them. This directory puts small online stores first. It lists PCI DSS compliant options, explains what card processing really costs using published sources, and shows where Avendo fits and where another option may fit better.

Because Avendo appears on its own payment processors list, it has a commercial interest in how that list reads. To keep the comparison fair, every entry is judged on the same criteria with the same kinds of facts, and no ratings or reviews are invented. Avendo is listed first as the publisher's own pick. No independent audit was performed. Read how we chose.

The other providers on the list, Stripe, Helcim and Square, are market reference points. This directory does not state whether they are Avendo processor partners.
