Predatory Practices, hidden fees. End of 2025 they charge a year end fee the tis not transparent, and have found after 13 years they have overcharged and added fees I was unaware of.

Predatory Practices, hidden fees. Refusing to let out of a contract that has already expired. They claim the contract is automatically renewed each year even though I only signed a 3 year contract. There is nothing in writing that explains this and they refuse to give you a copy of your original agreement. 

Business response:

Unfortunately, the owner of this account has not authorized you to address or make changes to the account on their behalf.That said, we are already working directly with the account owner to address the matter.

Very Disappointed With Shift4 I Would Not Recommend Them to Small Businesses I have been a long-time Shift4 customer, and unfortunately, my experience has reached the point where I would not recommend Shift4 to any small business owner.After reviewing my recent statement, my effective processing cost appears to be over 4%. I have repeatedly tried to get an explanation, but getting meaningful support is extremely difficult. I recently spent 22 minutes going through their automated phone system without being able to reach a li... read more

Hidden fees! Put my account negative! Cant get anyone on the phone! 3 times this has happened! Im canceling! They send me constant emails but never about the hidden fees till after theyve come out! Roughly $400 a month for 1 pos system and 1 kitchen printer is what this year has cost me! Also they claim no credit card fees! Which is a lie! They add the 3.5% onto the customers that are paying with credit card! If you try to call the billing department be prepared for no one to ever answer! I never received the promotions they... read more

MID - 0022569747 Feb 20 / 21, 2026 we had a customer claiming to be Kardi B's cousin spend $ 839 on 5 tickets. She was physically present and signed every Ticket. We then had two attempted Chargebacks over a few months (last being 2026 0960 19377 through 19381 (5 transactions). We disputed each one and supplied required documentation. We were then offered Arbitration which we accepted and subsequently lost. We were advised that the Card was processed manually which it wasn't. In July 2026 we were charged a $ 3,900 Card Brand... read more

Business response:

Hi ***,Im very sorry to hear about your experience, and I appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns. We do not initiate chargebacks, nor do we determine their outcomes. Chargebacks are handled and ultimately decided by the applicable card brands.Unfortunately, the card brands allow any cardholder to dispute a transaction by filing a chargeback. The best way for a merchant to defend against a chargeback is to provide proof that the sale was valid, such as signed receipts, invoices, or other supporting documents. I... read more

10/1/2024, a sales representative from Shift4 approached our small restaurant and explicitly promised a "No Contract / Cancel Anytime" program with transparent rates. Relying on this verbal agreement, we accepted the terminal hardware. We have since discovered that the sales agent completely vanished after delivery, and Shift4 has hidden a 3-year term agreement without our explicit prior consent or copy of the contract.Furthermore, Shift4 has unilaterally imposed an unauthorized $1,200 annual/bi-annual fee while threatening ... read more

This is the worst service ever. The fees are way too high, and you can never speak to a person on the phone.
