Are there any apps out there right now? I don't think they list any in the application gallery.
- redslazer 14y ago
  I dont think there are any apps that use this atm but there are tons of potential uses where the alternative was getting people to give you their paypal api keys. Not the most secure thing but usually one of the only options if you were building something where the revenue has to go directly to a users account.

    In addition to Pay Pad, we also have Alerts for Stripe: http://www.pay-pad.com/alerts http://www.pay-pad.com/alerts Also, Zapier open-sourced a nice dashboard that uses Stripe Apps: https://board.zapier.com/ https://board.zapier.com/

  http://digmydata.com http://digmydata.com added Stripe support, too.

To part with $30 off a $1,000 payment. Way too much for me. Pass.
- redslazer 14y ago
  Paypal will take $29.30 if someone pays you $1000 and it isnt anywhere as easy to integrate (the pro non hosted version) and use as stripe. Try and open a merchant account at any big bank and you wont get much better fees unless you are moving huge amounts of money.

"Stripe works just as it normally would: we deposit the money into your users' bank accounts on a rolling seven day basis." I can also use WePay, which deposits the money immediately and gives me a marketplace feature (I can take a chunk out of the payment for myself).

  Stripe has fee-splitting. See my link above.

This has been out for a while now, I used it for a platform integration, really easy to use

Check out http://board.zapier.com http://board.zapier.com -- a cool implentation of the API for a SaaS analytics dashboard.

  Nice! :)

  Very cool :-) I just tried it for Buffer and the numbers were a little off, but love the thinking!
  - mikeknoop 14y ago
    Yes, there a number of assumptions and simplifications made due to the easiest-available data from Stripe. Pull requests welcome: https://github.com/zapier/stripeboard https://github.com/zapier/stripeboard

    I'd love to hear how off they were, and even any guesses about why that may be. It would certainly help improve the project.

  I just tried this with my own Stripe account but it requested my business details all over again. Is it not able to use the details I first signed up with?
- mikeknoop 14y ago
  This was an ad-hoc project because one didn't seem to exist. Recently, http://digmydata.com http://digmydata.com added Stripe support and certainly supersedes this project.

This is the first step towards the "marketplace" feature of WePay or PayPal, which is great. But it's not very useful unless I can add a fee for myself. On a $100 purchase, I should be able to split the money so that $3.20 goes to Stripe, $1.00 goes to me, and $95.80 goes to the seller. Without that ability, I have to make up a separate billing arrangement with the seller, either a flat rate (eg subscription) or calculating fees and billing them post-hoc - messy and unreliable.
- reedlaw 14y ago
  Does this mean there is no way to even charge sellers who use your service, other than requiring them to fill out their own credit card on your site? That seems like an extra hassle for setting up a service that charges users for use of the marketplace.

    does this solve the grandparents issue?
    - stickfigure 14y ago
      That does address the issue. Strange that the fee-splitting page doesn't seem to be linked from the documentation anywhere.

Stripe is a pretty awesome company. Much more easy to integrate with compared to Paypal and their support blows Paypal out of the water.
