On the page you mention selling worldwide. But the simplicity of the paylink break down when you sell worldwide, as you have to both collect and remit taxes for each country (as in find a way to to fill the paperwork and pay taxes in separate countries).
That’s an additional service to find and connect if you use stripe, sadly.
That’s why when we launched Lab Surprise [0], with 19 apps from developers in several different countries, selling worldwide our bundles, we ended up using Paddle: they are the merchant of record, collect and remit the correct taxes in each country. Yes, it’s 5%+0.5cts but for us it was worth it.
I’m pretty sure many sellers using Stripe paylinks will just never do the proper remittances in countries that are not their country of origin, but that might end up bitting them hard.
Making tax remittance invisible is what can unleash instant worldwide micro-stores without hidden task risk
