The caveats

Apricot CX. Merchant acquisition means joining its partner network, and the apps it recommends to merchants are the ones whose support it runs. It says no merchant is recommended an app because it pays. Both review services act on your own App Store listing, no price is published, and every figure is its own.

The Support Heroes. Nothing about the commercial side is published. There is no price, no rate card, no SLA, no response-time commitment and no minimum. So everything about what it costs and what it promises is a conversation. Ownership is not stated either. The site credits eighteen people by first name and names no founder, no parent and no legal entity. For a supplier taking over your merchant relationship, that is the one fact you would want before the first call. The 44 apps and 66 heroes are self-reported and not checkable. The partner list is unusually specific for this category, though, and several of those vendors are well known enough to ask directly.
