FastSpring
FastSpring is a full-service eCommerce platform which offers payment,subscription management,tax,and fraud capabilities,but only in a merchant of record (reseller model). FastSpring allows merchants to customize the shopper experience and to better monetize their offerings,but their localization capabilities are not as strong in every region around the world.
Digital River VS 2Checkout
2Checkout
2Checkout is a comprehensive all-in-one monetization platform which simplifies global online sales for merchants all over the world. We work with vendors in any model that makes sense for them - merchant of record,payment service provider (PSP),or hybrid - and we have a strong presence all over the globe,ensuring a fully localized experience for merchants and shoppers alike.

2Checkout lets you take on global markets more
seamlessly versus FastSpring

Sell Globally with a True
Localized Experience

While FastSpring is a full-service eCommerce platform suitable for selling digital goods,its breadth of services and scope are inferior to those of the 2Checkout all-in-one monetization platform. FastSpring offers users a pleasant onboarding experience and a multitude of features included under the hood;however,it fails to deliver consistently in all eCommerce areas.

FastSpring localization capabilities are not as broad as 2Checkout's and the platform itself seems to be niched towards high-volume merchants. Overall,the FS brand lacks the nimbleness of other players,with a clunkier user interface,a slower approach to implementing compliance updates,and a sales process that seems to favor Western-based companies. By comparison,2Checkout has a more inclusive approach,with out-of-the-box capabilities that can be mixed and matched to the merchant's needs,supported by a much stronger global presence.

A Powerful Platform for Software and SaaS Companies

FastSpring's subscription management and billing capabilities are comparable to 2Checkout's,although they don't fully cover the entire subscription lifecycle. The FS platform includes lucrative promotional and monetization features,but they trail behind in other areas which are crucial for SaaS,such as revenue recovery or retention tools.
Advanced Subscription Management
REPER
Subscription payments.
While 2Checkout offers recurring support for 34 payment methods,FastSpring can only accommodate about half of these.
Localized Checkout & Analytics Capabilities
REPER
Revenue recovery tools.
2Checkout's suite of revenue recovery features - such as Account Updater,Intelligent Payment Routing,Retry Logic,or Multi-Currency Management - can drive up to 20% revenue uplift,by comparison to FS' more basic stack.
Customization and Optimization
REPER
Churn prevention tools.
FastSpring's churn tools are limited in nature,whereas 2Checkout tackles churn from all angles to help you prevent and fight it,with input from churned subscribers to help you optimize your product.
24/7 Merchant and Shopper Support

Acquire More Clients with the World's Leading Affiliate Network for Digital Goods

Switch from FastSpring's rudimentary affiliate network to 2Checkout's world-leading network for digital goods,the Avangate Affiliate Network - ranked #1 worldwide for eight years in a row by BlueBook - and boost your sales. Businesses that moved from FastSpring to 2Checkout saw 7% additional revenue coming from our affiliate network,just months after migration.
"ROI on the affiliates channel is not only positive,but also much bigger than that of other marketing initiatives,such as PPC advertising. For example,after only three months of active program engagement,affiliate network sales are 35% higher than sales resulted from PPC campaigns."

Take Full Control of Your
Subscription Data

Have you ever wondered what your eCommerce provider does with your payment data? Some providers,like FastSpring,do not directly store your users' credit card data on their platform. This not only raises concerns about who is responsible for taking care of that sensitive data,it also can generate issues when it's time to migrate (Where do you find your data?) and might hinder your monetization potential (What happens to subscriptions in case of failed payments?).

In a world more and more focused on the security and integrity of personal and payment data,opt for a provider which understands the importance of data security. What's more,with 2Checkout you are the owner of your customer and subscription data,not us.
