### "PayKickstart ups and downs." — 5.0/5

> **Samuel** | *20 January 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This is a solid, effective conversion-focused solution. Fantastic for online marketers.
> 
> **Cons**: I've got some sales that are logged, but I don't get paid for them.
> 
> I believe the platform will only get better because I am aware that the company has a ton of brand-new, exciting features planned for release in the near future.

### "Start with a good kick" — 5.0/5

> **Krzysztof** | *3 July 2019* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10

### "PayKickStart" — 3.0/5

> **russell** | *24 October 2019* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Great idea, and great opportunity for legitimate business people who want an affiliate system, without being exploited.
> 
> **Cons**: Short supply of products which I would want to promote, and I did not get paid a commission which I earned.
> 
> I had hoped to make additional revenue through Affiliate Commissions. However, I had a bad experience with the very first company which I made a sale for. The Sale was NOT tracked, and I receive no commissions.  I was told that I had to deal with the Vendor, not Paykickstart, but the Vendor never responded to my messages, even though I could prove who the customer was.  I was left with the feeling that Paykickstart  had no interest in making sure that their customers got paid. I don't think they should be liable for commissions, but I would have liked to have felt that they would take a more active interest in resolving the matter, rather than a totally hands-off approach

> 
> **Cons**: Can't identify something i don't personally like.
> 
> Overall, PayKickStarts has been a great experience; they manage all of my payments, and I can quickly price my products, add upsells, and integrate so that my customers can have access as soon as they pay.

### "Outstanding" — 5.0/5

> **O.** | *1 July 2019* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: You have everything you need to sell online products in one place. Is really intuitive, even a beginner can start using this tool
> 
> **Cons**: The options are a bit overwhelming. You may need some time to set up your first product campaign
> 
> the drag and drop funnel maker is really interesting, and also the fact that you can make changes while the product is live (like include an upsell)
