Stripe

Payment infrastructure for the internet economy.

Stripe is the leading payment processing platform for internet businesses, handling hundreds of billions of dollars annually. It provides APIs for accepting payments, managing subscriptions, sending payouts, and handling complex financial operations, all with developer-friendly documentation and SDKs. Stripe supports 135+ currencies, 45+ payment methods (cards, wallets, bank transfers), and operates in 46 countries.

Stripe is our default payment processor for all e-commerce and SaaS projects. Its APIs are the best-documented in the payments industry, and its React components (Stripe Elements) provide a seamless, PCI-compliant checkout experience. Stripe's subscription billing handles complex scenarios like prorations, trials, metered usage, and multi-currency pricing that would take months to build from scratch.

  • E-commerce payment processing
  • SaaS subscription billing
  • Marketplace payment splitting (Stripe Connect)
  • One-time and recurring payments
  • Invoicing and accounts receivable

Questions we get asked

How much does Stripe cost?
Stripe charges 2.9% + $0.30 per successful card charge in the US. International cards and currency conversion have additional fees. There are no monthly fees or setup costs.
Is Stripe PCI compliant?
Yes. Stripe is a PCI Level 1 Service Provider. Using Stripe Elements or Checkout means your servers never handle card data, simplifying your PCI compliance requirements.
Can Stripe handle international payments?
Yes. Stripe supports 135+ currencies and 45+ payment methods. It handles currency conversion, local payment methods (iDEAL, SEPA, Alipay), and cross-border compliance.
Stripe vs PayPal, which is better?
Stripe has better APIs, more customization, and lower fees for most businesses. PayPal has broader consumer trust and brand recognition. Many businesses use both to maximize payment options.
