2024 Year in Review

2024 was a year of massive growth for our platform clients and for Rainforest

January 7, 2025

Behind the Scenes

A few highlights:

Here are a few of the wins our platform clients achieved this year:

  • Three separate platforms completed their implementation and went live in less than 14 days each. You can read more about one of those platforms, Decoda Health, here
  • One large, high-volume platform increased their gross margin on payments from 9 basis points to 55 basis points by moving from a referral-based payments provider to Rainforest.
  • Another established platform reduced interchange passthrough by 24 basis points by implementing Level 2/3 data, enrolling eligible merchants in Visa SMB, and leveraging American Express OptBlue with guidance from Rainforest’s Platform Success team.
  • One B2B2C platform achieved a 16% increase in processing volume by optimizing their checkout flow UI based on Rainforest’s recommendations
  • A platform for ecommerce merchants who sells HSA/FSA eligible goods increased their auth rates from <30% to >90% by upgrading from their previous provider to Rainforest

We’ve also released several features to deliver an even better merchant experience and help our platform clients drive payments adoption, volume, and revenue. Here are just some of this past year’s most exciting releases:

  • Implemented 3DS to protect merchants and reduce fraud
  • Added Apple Pay in the embeddable payments component to reduce checkout friction and help platforms grow payment volume
  • Launched a suite of enhancements to our merchant onboarding component, including Plaid bank verification and merchant self-service options
  • Added support for partial authorizations to increase auth rates, especially in the case of HSA/FSA payments
  • Made pre-built helpdesk articles available to all platform clients so they can launch faster and confidently support their merchants
  • Launched an embeddable chargeback management component that guides merchants through the chargeback response

As we move into 2025, we’re excited to continue this growth, deliver on an impactful product roadmap to drive even more volume for our platform clients, and provide the best merchant experience and support in the industry.
