Mollie

Try Mollie
Pay-as-you-go, no monthly fees
My take
Why I use it
I use Mollie for every deposit and final payment clients make through SVD Online. n8n creates a payment link with the exact amount and description automatically, the client pays, and the payment status updates in my systems without me touching anything.

Review
My full review
Every payment a client makes to SVD Online, deposit or final invoice, runs through Mollie. n8n builds the payment link automatically with the right amount and description for the package someone's booked, so I never touch a payment manually.
What sold me on it for automation specifically is the API: creating a payment link is one request, and the test mode lets you simulate a successful or failed payment before anything goes live, which made building and testing the whole payment flow far less nerve-wracking.
If you're automating payments rather than just taking them through a hosted checkout page, Mollie's API is genuinely easy to build against.
