Chose Stripe Payments
Stripe saves us money on fees and doesn't require a paid subscription to use for transactions. It's also easier for customers to complete transactions without logging in to something.
We use Square for point of sale payments but we only use that occasionally if we are at an expo or similar. I have also used a credit card service from our bank but it was several years ago and it was technologically slow and expensive. Stripe is easier to use and reasonably …
Stripe is much easier to set up and use, has a simpler UI, and lower transaction fees. A no-brainer when it comes to taking credit card payments online.
Stripe is easier to use and offers better support and rates. My favorite part with Stripe is probably their ready-to-use plug-in that's offered for me. We have multiple eCommerce stores and we rely on our payment process going smoothly. The plug-in from Stripe is free, …
We found that Stripe was much easier to have integrated with our site, as well as easier on the users when it comes to inputting payments. On our end, the dashboard and reporting are very easy to utilize and make it very easy to understand how our business is doing.
Heartland is not even a comparison. I used Heartland for about five years. Customer service was non-existent, the technology was terrible. Stripe is in a league of its own when it comes to credit card processing and its abilities to assist you in just about anything you need …
The Stripe API provides a great deal more functionality, is better documented, and is usually perceived by our clients as a more ‘professional’ solution. It also provides a more extensive feature set in the account dashboard.
We selected Stripe largely because it was already integrated into Planning Center Online Giving - we had the option of choosing other payment processors, but it would have added work and complicated the information flow. Stripe made their services easy to adapt to, and the …
We also use Your Pay from First Data to process credit card payments for some of our legacy customers. The functionality is fairly similar, although the user interface in First Data is a bit more clunky than Stripe, and it doesn't allow for customers to enter their own credit …
First of all Mollie doesn't have as much development libraries as Stripe and the API is not that good as it is in Stripe because I had an return value which was not really documented in the time I searched for it (fixed as of now). Stripe is in my opinion also more flexible as …
Stripe is much easier to set up and use and it just works! When it comes to credit card processing, we wanted an system that was easy to integrate into our sales process and for us, Stripe was it. If you are selling online and need to process payments, I would highly recommend …
Stripe provides far better tools for reporting and tracking of revenue. It also enabled the feature to checkout on our website without requiring a redirect or having to complete a site audit as is required with some card processors. The website installation was completed within …
I had a customer who was going to use Heartland for payments. Their integration with woocommerce didn't seem as good, it took forever to get an account with a ton of information needed. Though Heartland had cheaper per charge fees they do have a monthly fee also. I have used …
I didn’t use Square for very long. I was charging customers for a direct sales company and that was fine. But now that I have my own website and many products to manage, I needed a company that could help me manage my customers and collect payments from out of the country. I …
We initially wanted integrated PayPal as a payment method, but as more customers were asking for different payment providers we eventually switched to Stripe to accommodate their requests.
Paypal is much better due mainly to the server hardly ever having outages, just as easy if not easier to install and customers are used to the brand and trust it more than others. Square is very similar to Stripe but obviously integrates with its own system so has very few …
We use PayPal to accept PayPal payments but their fee structure is not as advantageous as Stripe so we don't use them for card payments. What Stripe does, they do very well and short of finding another company that offers comparable services with fewer fees, I don't see a …
Apple Pay is like a black box for us. We have not been able to accomplish anything that we have accomplished so easily with Stripe. I cannot give my full opinion about how they compare, but I would also add that talking to Apple in my opinion is like preparing for at least 1 …
They are very similar. PayPal charges you monthly to have the ability to set up monthly payments. I had a problem with PayPal earlier this year where it would let me set up a recurring payment but then would not let me charge my customer the following month. It's actually a …
We had a client who wanted a QR to use in their marketing, which enabled their clients to donate to us. It was so useful to be able to set it up, and we can track the views and donations received using this code. Another client with issues with our website wanted to set up a monthly subscription, so I sent her a payment link, which worked brilliantly. For clients that want to make one-time donations, it also lets the client choose the amount. The only scenario where we haven't been able to help is when clients want to change the card associated with the payment - whilst we understand it is for security/gdpr, it means they have to cancel and set up something new, which poses the danger that we may lose them as a customer.
Stripe is the leader in the industry when it comes to any type of industry. All that is needed is a plan and then implementing that plan either with a developer, or through the help of Stripe's customer service team to assist in getting you setup. The ease of use time it takes to get up and running is second to none
Stripe offers a very easy-to-navigate platform with many different functions. From linking it to our website and accounting platform to tracking our payments, being able to issue a refund quickly if required, and setting up QR codes and payment links for subscriptions or one-time donations, it really covers so many aspects that we need and use on a weekly and monthly basis.
Stripe's support is nearly perfect – great attention to detail, fast response times, and a willingness to really dig into issues and get to the bottom of them. In the five years we've been using Stripe, the only negative thing I can say about their customer support is that it seems like there has been a slight shift to less technical front-line support agents, which means it's more likely your issue will have to be escalated before you get more information. This, however, has happened as Stripe rolled out more real-time support features like call and chat, and that really isn't workable if you're escalating everything right off the bat. It's absolutely an acceptable trade-off.
Stripe is easier to use and offers better support and rates. My favorite part with Stripe is probably their ready-to-use plug-in that's offered for me. We have multiple eCommerce stores and we rely on our payment process going smoothly. The plug-in from Stripe is free, constantly updated, secure, and very easy to implement.
It makes getting money from your clients really easy
It gives your clients the guarantee that their payment information is totally secure and confidentially used and kept
It is very easy to integrate with online assets of the company
In a couple of occasions, some companies have wanted me to use Stripe for them to pay me, and I have had a couple of hiccups. This was more related to the way that these companies set up the Stripe integration of my account to their platform. In both cases, the integration has not been possible and to this date, I still do not know why with exactitude.
As I said before, the commissions kept by Stripe could be lower, and shared with the CC companies, rather than having us clients pay for all of o it.
