Pros / Cons
  • Features like subscriptions/billing, marketplace / platform support (via Connect), fraud-detection tools, payout scheduling, and dashboard analytics level it up beyond a simple payment gateway.
  • Stripe caused me to create over 250 checkout pages on my website and didn’t tell me that I had to click a setting on their website so that I would receive notifications that a sale was made.

  • business profiles and QR codes simplify dockside deposits, and guests know the brand, so last-minute additions go smoothly.
  • I got locked out of my account, due to losing my phone and logging in from a unknown browser, after 6 days of back and forth, I shut down my account and never looked back.
