Fair Context

eBizCharge by Century Business Solutions has built a well-regarded payment integration for major ERP systems — particularly Sage, QuickBooks, and Microsoft Dynamics. The product's strength is its tight integration with the ERP user interface, allowing staff to process payments without leaving the ERP environment. For organizations that need basic payment capture inside their ERP with minimal workflow change, eBizCharge delivers a practical, quick-to-deploy solution. The distinction is scope and architecture. eBizCharge is fundamentally a payment capture plugin — it adds payment acceptance to the ERP, processes through a single gateway relationship, and handles basic posting. PaymentHub is an ERP-native payments platform: multi-gateway orchestration with rule-based routing, self-service customer portals, AR and AP workflow automation, automated invoice-level reconciliation, Level 2/3 interchange optimization, ACH enablement, compliant surcharging, headless payment APIs, and upgrade-safe customization through hooks and overrides. The question is not whether eBizCharge can accept payments — it can — but whether a payment plugin is sufficient for your payment operations maturity or whether a platform is required.

Customer Payment Portal	⚠️ Basic online payment page — not a full self-service portal with account context and ERP balance visibility	✅ Self-service portal: invoice pay, statements, autopay, payment history — all ERP-connected

Where PaymentHub Goes Further

Platform vs. Plugin

eBizCharge adds payment capture to your ERP. PaymentHub adds a complete payments platform: portals, AR/AP automation, reconciliation, fee optimization, and gateway orchestration — all ERP-native.

Gateway Freedom

eBizCharge locks you to one processor. PaymentHub connects to any gateway and routes transactions by business rules — entity, method, amount, or risk profile.

Self-Service Portal

Give customers a branded portal for invoice payments, autopay enrollment, statement access, and payment history — all connected to real-time ERP balances.

Automated Reconciliation

Invoice-level payment matching with automated GL posting eliminates the manual reconciliation work that payment plugins leave behind.

Headless Payment APIs

Integrate payment capture, status, and reconciliation with any system through APIs. Payment processing is not locked inside the ERP UI.

PaymentHub Is the Right Choice If You...

PaymentHub is the better choice when your payment operations need more than capture — when you need gateway routing flexibility, customer-facing portals, AR/AP automation, automated reconciliation, and upgrade-safe customization of posting and fee policies.

Your Path from eBizCharge to PaymentHub

eBizCharge may be the better choice if your primary need is basic payment capture inside your ERP (especially Sage or QuickBooks), you prefer a single-provider processing relationship, and your payment operations do not require portals, AP automation, or multi-gateway routing.
