### 1/5 — App won't open

*2016-01-25, version 4.3.4*

App does not work on my IPhone 5 or 6. It will not even open. Have tried deleting, reinstalling, restarting phone, nothing works. Called tech support, they were no help, suggested newer IOS versions were cause, suggested wiping everything off phone and reinstalling older IOS version..... Maybe Sage should release a new version?

### 1/5 — Worst.App.Could  be good...

*2016-01-23, version 4.3.4*

Terrible. 
Once you close the app you must uninstall it to log back in and most times that doesn't even work. 
Quite terrible when trying to look professional with a customer. 
Disappointed

### 1/5 — Will not work!!

*2014-12-12, version 4.2.19*

This has been the most frustrating program I have ever seen. It does not work properly and everyone blames it on something else and in the mean time I have spent hours on a program that doesn't work!! I would not recommend this to anyone!

Just crashes when you open it. Tried reinstalling on several devices and the same thing happens.

### 2/5 — Crashes with swiper

Using the electronic swiper put out by the same company, the app crashes with every swipe. Only works when you punch in the codes manually.

### 5/5 — Sage mobile payments

*2017-03-08, version 4.3.4*

Been using Sage mobile payments through Claris Merchant Services for the last 3 years processing payments in the shop and on the road for my Locksmith business with no issues. Try looking up Claris Merchant Services for info and excellent support with this ap.

### 5/5 — The Ogre

*2014-09-03, version 3.3.4*

Great App, I have used this app and Sage Merchant services for almost 2 years now and never had a problems! App works great and it even emails me a signed copy of each receipt! The recent improvements they have made just make it that much better! Their processing and rates are great as well!

Great app, works just fine with my IPhone 3G.

### 3/5 — Tipping

*2013-01-25, version 3.3.4*

I wish the tip option was towards the end with the signature. Awkward when asking a customer do you want to leave a tip.

### 2/5 — Unreliable

*2017-04-06, version 4.3.4*

Our business has been using the Sage mobile app for a credit card processing for a couple of years now. However, the latest version of the app crashes at the most inopportune times - most notably after the card has been swiped and read, but prior to the completion of the transaction. The problem has only gotten worse since we upgraded to newer phones (now using the iPhone 6S). We value the ability to process customer payments while on the job, but need a reliable way to do that. Unfortunately, this version of the mobile app leaves much to be desired. Please repair and the problems and update the app soon!
