CashNotify vs Midtrans

CashNotify is a desktop menu bar app that monitors Stripe and PayPal accounts and displays payment activity on macOS and Windows. It checks for events every minute, when opened, or when refreshed manually. Users can choose which captured payments, failed payments, refunds, and payouts appear and trigger notifications. Expanded payment entries show customer information and transaction fees; application fees and taxes appear when applicable. The dashboard estimates net revenue after fees, refunds, and disputes, and can aggregate selected accounts and periods. Graphs can use a chosen currency when connected accounts use different currencies. CashNotify connects directly to Stripe and PayPal with account API keys, so ecommerce services can be covered when they pay revenue through either provider. The maker says financial data passes directly between the computer and payment provider, without an intermediate CashNotify server; Stripe keys are stored in the computer’s Keychain. The free plan covers one account. A 14-day trial needs no card or account. Paid licenses are perpetual for the covered version and include 12 months of updates and support; continued updates require renewal.

Midtrans helps businesses accept payments through cards, bank transfers, e-wallets, QRIS, over-the-counter payments, cardless credit, direct debit, and other methods. Merchants can select from 25 payment methods and enable all or only those they need. Snap supplies a checkout interface for websites and mobile apps; Core API lets a business build its own payment flow. Merchants can also create a payment page link in the dashboard without code and share it with customers.

For ecommerce, Midtrans documents plugins for WordPress WooCommerce, Magento, PrestaShop, OpenCart, and WHMCS, along with integrations for Shopify, Sirclo, and Jejualan. Android and iOS SDKs support native in-app payments. Recurring charges can collect fixed subscription amounts at selected intervals and retry failures, though only some payment channels support them. Midtrans says it screens every transaction for fraud using machine learning and analyst-defined rules. It is available on Android, iOS, web, and through an API. Setup is free, with charges on successful transactions; pricing starts from 4,000 IDR, and fees can differ for gaming and digital product companies.
