Stripe all the way! They have the best infrastructure and security, you can build out any payments system with their APIs and now they even have treasury-as-a-service to build your own bank. Elon and Peter Thiel were early investors, I can't imagine any company catching up at this point.
- gingerlime 6y agoWe’re using Stripe and super happy in general. But they don’t cover PayPal (which lots of our users need), and also recently added 0.5% charge for all subscriptions [0]. Previously it was included. They definitely added value over time, but I would expect them to raise prices as well over time. Also their support, while still great overall, can be w bit patchy and much slower than before (from our own anecdotal experience). I’m curious about the experience of others with chargebee etc as a layer that potentially lets you “swap” Stripe with something else. Is it worth it?

- colesantiago 6y agoThanks for this, seems Stripe is the way to go, I'm sure that Stripe has no issues with selling worldwide. One thing I keep hearing is Stripe does not handle 'VAT' and all those tax stuff but not sure if I need it though. Is this still an issue with Stripe?
