Braintree Wants To Make It Easier For Developers To Integrate Online Payments. Braintree, an online payments gateway provider, is hoping to make it easier for developers to start integrating payments immediately.

Braintree Wants To Make It Easier For Developers To Integrate Online Payments

For background, Braintree powers and automates online and mobile payments for merchants and companies online. The company provides a merchant account, payment gateway, recurring billing, credit card storage, support for mobile and international payments, and PCI Compliance solutions. Previously, developers couldn’t access Braintree’s full suite of tools until they were approved by the company. Now, Braintree has opened slightly to allow developers to create test transactions and explore the provider’s features and client libraries prior to being approved as a payments operator. The company says that this is important because trial integrations and speed to market are crucial to online merchants.

Developers can begin integrating to Braintree through the “Get Started” button on the Braintree homepage. Cloud Security, Server Security and Firewall Management. Ico Generator. BodeTree Is A Financial Tool For People Who Hate Finance. Today, a company called BodeTree is launching a new web-based solution to help small business owners make better sense of their financial data.

BodeTree Is A Financial Tool For People Who Hate Finance

Like another new startup in the SMB realm (that being InvoiceASAP), BodeTree is also leveraging QuickBooks to help import data into its service, but instead of focusing on online invoicing and payments, BodeTree wants to provide business owners with a real-time dashboard view of their financials, plus access to detailed reporting and analysis.

The first thing you’ll notice about BodeTree is its looks. “It’s kind of a joke, and a play on the whole concept we have with the name of BodeTree.

The Enlightenment Score, however, is kind of cool. The BodeTree logo guy himself is the “score” – he and the background change colors related to the current status of the business. WalkMe Walks You Through Websites. A Tel Aviv startup, WalkMe, aims to do for your website what your UX team should have already done: make it easier for your users to understand.

WalkMe Walks You Through Websites

The service creates little pop-up bubbles over various points in order to lead your users through a typical interaction, be it a bank website or a complex social tool. These aren’t videos that run in the corner. Instead, every time you complete an action the system pops up a new bubble for the next step. These interactive bubbles will also help correct mistakes in input. Founded by Dan Adika, a former software designer for HP, the site offers free demo plans as well as more complete plans for enterprise customers.

Pricing ranges from 1 cent per “interaction” to $99 a month for multi-language support. It’s kind of funny, actually: the very people who could really use WalkMe – namely purveyors of horribly complex or ill-begotten websites – probably will avoid it thinking that it adds a layer of complexity they can’t handle or understand.
