Very user friendly, easy to use and works well

### 5/5 — The best

*2026-01-04, version 14.42.0*

Makes paying bills easy and dare I say…fun??

### 5/5 — Best Billpay App

*2025-11-07, version 14.40.0*

Absolutely the easiest Bill app I’ve ever used. I can pay all my bills immediately, and everything is tracked and kept in one place for me.

### 5/5 — So convenient

*2025-10-16, version 14.39.0*

So easy and convenient. Calling and paying a bill takes time and sending a check is not recommended. This app is a real time saver.

### 5/5 — Pays any bill

*2025-10-11, version 14.39.0*

Especially for random bills that aren’t set up for regular payments, this app scans the bill and sends the payment. You only need to set up your credit card once.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — They don’t have automatic payments

*2026-08-19, version 14.54.0*

I have tried several times to pay, their first intention is for us to subscribe instead of paying. And when paying , it’s not automatic, you need to wait for a verification that doesn’t make sense. The. It says declined. Although my bank says that they don’t have anything.
Waste of time.

### 1/5 — Lacks features

*2026-07-24, version 14.52.1*

I paid my bill online through the Papaya pay services 15 minutes ago and I’m still waiting for “verification of the details” and payment confirmation. Unlike several other online payments I made today wherein verification and confirmation came immediately. In addition to that, this app lacks features showing bills, paid or unpaid, details of the original charges, and connecting to previous payments. Need an efficient app and service.

### 1/5 — Warning upsells costly unwanted services

*2026-03-17, version 14.46.0*

Beware this app engages in dubious behavior by trying to automatically enlist you in additional costly products. Do not install.

### 1/5 — Waste of Time

*2026-01-31, version 14.40.0*

I’ve been waiting 10+ days for my payment to process. I’m constantly contacted to add details that should of have had a space for me to add when submitting payment. Why offer bill pay when you don’t know what you’re doing?? My bill is more complicated now depending on this app. Definitely not worth the headache and space on my Device

### 1/5 — App

*2025-11-18, version 14.41.0*

Stinks


Ready to use another doctor

### 1/5 — Welcome to the unauthorized charges club

*2025-08-28, version 14.37.1*

I don’t leave reviews. This is an exception. Papaya’s business model is, essentially, getting you to enter a payment card to pay some random medical bill, and bury in the terms an automatic subscription to a worthless privacy service. $36 a month they charged me before I caught on. Look online for 100s of complaints like mine. They got VC money from Sequoia and Bessemer. What were they thinking? AVOID

### 1/5 — Scam app

*2025-08-28, version 14.37.1*

Yall please Don’t use this app they act like they pay your bills and then give a due date to pay them back in reality you don’t the check bounce  and your utilities charge an extra fee for a bounce check.dont give them none of your bank information I already told customer service if anything get taken out my bank I’m contacting my lawyer and sueing them.

### 1/5 — Irregular and untrustworthy. Bills are not always paid even when they say they have been paid.

*2025-07-31, version 14.35.0*

This has become a recurring problem. Papaya will say they’ve paid the bill, even sending out an email confirming they have paid the bill. 10 days later I get a notice saying the bills have not been paid. I check the credit card and they do not show any payments being made.

The whole purpose of the app is to make it easier to process payments on time and Papaya has now failed several times over several months. I’m deleting this app.

Do not trust this app if you need payments to occur on time.

### 1/5 — Charging you.

*2025-07-20, version 14.34.0*

This app charges you $39 every month for subscription, and that’s not clear when you sign up.

### 1/5 — Zero stars if I could

*2025-07-03, version 14.33.0*

Awful!! Demand access to our bank account, no way to pay with our hsa, repeatedly said the provider was not in your database even though the bill shows your app as the only way to pay. Couldn’t even check out as a guest. This is the WORST medical bill pay I’ve ever used. Now I have to delete the app that I didn’t want in the first place and delete your link to my checking account. AND I now have to do extra steps to get reimbursed by our HSA. I’ve never dealt with a bill pay that doesn’t allow you to check out as a guest.

Easy and secure to pay a medical bill.

Just seems to magically work the way I hope an app would. 🤷 Why was paying bills ever harder than Papaya?!

I love papaya because  of less time and stress! 
Just a few clicks and I’ve paid a bill. No stamps no envelopes no online stress either!!

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2026-06-13, version 14.50.0*

So easy to scan and pay my bills and the confirmation comes and lets you know its been paid. Super convenient!

### 5/5 — Replaced PayPal

*2026-05-30, version 14.50.0*

So ever since PayPal removed their bill pay feature I was looking for a place that will be able to take AMEX to pay my bills and thank God I found this app. Y’all literally saved me.
