Is that technically correct?
I thought with Stripe, they are the merchant and you’re technically just a sub account to them.
- spacebanana7 2y agoGenerally a business operating on stripe is its own merchant of record. There exceptions though, for example a stripe account linked to a platform via stripe connect or platforms using direct charges where their customers are the merchant of record.
