Pros

“Stripe really stands out for making complex payment processing feel intuitive, with clean APIs, excellent documentation, and a structure that allows you to scale from a simple checkout to a fully customized payment ecosystem.”

Marc R.

Talent

“Having our invoicing and accounts receivable in a single dashboard was helpful to a team that spans several time zones and has lots of moving pieces with various clients needing different billing cycles.”

Kaleb V.

Founder and Managing Member

“I also appreciate Stripe’s strong security features and global capabilities, which give customers confidence when making purchases and allow businesses to scale internationally with ease.”

Gary A.

Founder CEO

Pros

“It was very easy to create an account and start transferring money to it, it has an easy to understand interface which makes it very simple to navigate to any of its sections, I can use it on mobile devices as on computer, allows you to manage your money securely with measures such as two-factor authentication, allows you to work with suppliers from different parts of the world.”

Marcos A.

Manager

“My business, is a legally registered travel agency in the UK, and I relied on Wise to manage payments for my photography and cultural tours, primarily in South America.”

Tristan Q.

Director

“They require a bank statement showing the account name, a record of the transaction including account numbers and payment reference numbers etc.”

Reid P.

Director Owner

Cons

“We are a small, privately owned veterinary hospital that has spent years serving our community and caring for people's pets. Despite operating a legitimate business with documented transactions, Stripe suddenly withheld and removed nearly $7,000 from our account, placing a significant financial burden on our practice.”

Jennifer J.

Practice Manager

“In rare instances, we have faced issues while syncing the transaction data with our ERP software and that may lead to some time delay in payments being reconciled on our site.”

Eric P.

ERP Supervisor

“I worked with them for hours to set up a test transaction on one of the checkout pages that I set up before I clicked the setting to receive notifications. But if I had made a sale and didn’t receive a notification I would have had one very angry customer AND THAT CUSTOMER WOULD HAVE BLAME ME FOR NEGLECTING THEM AND I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN A HORRIBLE REVIEW FOR BEING NEGLECTFUL AND SEVERELY UNPROFESSIONAL..”

Curtis D.

Artist Painter

Cons

“One of the worst experiences I can recall with re-request after re-request for data already provided, and then THEY made errors thinking my name was my Banks Name and then THEY cancelled my transaction (probably out of shame given the disgusting disservice they gave me).”

Gary C.

“Also Panama is no longer allowed to receive payments from my freelancer jobs so this was a major blow to my remote work operations”
