October 2026 Edition. Every number here is derived from the raw labels under vendor table v2026-10.7, every buyer segment counted.
Standing
7 labels, too few to rank
A product needs 10 labels in a category before a share or quadrant is stated. WePay was named 7 times in Embedded payments, where Stripe Connect led with 53%. The labels and the evidence are below, counted exactly.

Standing by category

Every category where a model named WePay for a mid-market B2B company. Share is first choices across the direct, paraphrase, budget and scale prompts; rank is within every product named in that category.

Movement

This is the first edition on this tier, so no move can be computed for WePay yet. From the next edition this section shows, per buyer segment and per category, whether its share moved by more than the measured noise floor.

By model

How each model treated WePay across every prompt where it was named for a mid-market B2B company. Fourteen models, six prompts per category.

By framing

Which of the six questions produced the naming. By model says how often; this says asked what. The first-choice count on the right carries the marks of the models that produced it.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“WePay is a strong budget-friendly candidate because it is listed with a clear transaction-based price of 2.9% + 25¢ per transaction” Perplexity Sonar · Embedded payments · budget prompt · first choice
“Look for "PayFac-as-a-Service" or direct acquiring models (like Finix, WePay, or some BaaS providers)” DeepSeek V4 Flash · Embedded payments · negative prompt · alternative
“if you're processing higher volumes, WePay or Paddle might offer better value” Kimi K2 · Embedded payments · budget prompt · alternative
“Best for platform payouts, supporting marketplace and platform payment flows” Claude Haiku 4.5 · Embedded payments · comparative prompt · alternative

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

“Low ratings (~3.6/5), declining innovation compared to modern alternatives. Still operates but not recommended for new builds.” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Embedded payments · negative prompt · hard negative

A head-to-head page exists where both products are among a category's top eight. The other rows are the same fact without a page behind them, so they link to the product instead.

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named WePay. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, five of the fourteen in this edition, so these counts come from 17 of the 17 answers that named WePay and are not a share of its labels.

Search figures are US estimates from DataForSEO, read October 5, 2026; AI search demand is its modeled, directional estimate, not a count of queries to any assistant. The answers are this edition's. Two measurements side by side: neither is read as the cause of the other.

Names read as WePay

What the judge wrote, as written, with how often. The vendor table decides that these count as WePay; a claim can dispute any of them.

An email the morning each edition publishes: where this product moved, where it held, and by how much against the noise floor. One address, confirmed by a click; a stop link in every email.

Claim this page

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when WePay's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as WePay, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

What a new claim receivesHide what a new claim receives

A new claim receives the current edition's vendor brief for WePay by email, built from the raw record of the edition. It shows:

  • where WePay is named, by buyer and by framing, and which cells hold its first choices;
  • the claims the models make when they name it, ranked, with the strongest and the weakest quoted;
  • its vocabulary against the segment leader's, and the pages the models cited;
  • who was chosen in the answers that did not name WePay, and every reason the record gives;
  • a battlecard for each top rival: the head-to-head split, why they win, and the reservation quoted against them;
  • one page of published figures cleared to show a buyer.

A verification link goes to your work email; an address at the vendor's own domain is approved on the spot, any other is reviewed by hand. Your email is never published. Claiming gives no say over labels, shares, verdicts or which quotes appear.
