I love Stripe I love Stripe. I love the updates that my $ is on its way, the ability to create sales links per product, and the site, which was okay to navigate with some attention to the instructions.

Tyler helped me--was really great. Tyler helped me. I thought my question regarding two-factor authentication and transfer of ownership from me to another person was complex. I was startled by how well Tyler could help me. He could walk me through certain screens and pop-up windows. It was as if he was visualizing my screen and telling me very clearly what to do at each juncture. I could only think, How is it possible we can have this good a communication about a complex topic, separated as we were by probably thousands of miles and my not-always hearing things (and having to ask Tyler to repeat things). Tyler was so perfect in the help he gave me. Never showed impatience; frequently gave me a gentle reassurance. Was remarkable.

Read Before It's Too Late If you are a small business owner, using Stripe is like giving your money to a random person on the street and hoping they don't run off with it. I've seen amazing businesses destroyed because of Stripe's horrible fraud detection algorithm. It's 2024, and they still can't figure out how to develop a competent algorithm that can tell the difference between a glitch and actual fraud, and their customer service team will eventually stop responding to your calls, emails, and DM's once they freeze your funds. They froze my funds for 5 months, and the only reason I got my funds back is because I got a lawyer involved to get ahold of them (they ignored my emails for months), and they finally realized they made a mistake and released the funds. Had I not hired a lawyer, my funds would still be stuck in the account, probably forever. Protect yourself and your business by staying far away from Stripe.

LOOK: Chat w/ Cust Svc Confirms Stripe Takes Your Money Even When They Cannot Explain What It Is For! Here is a chat with Stripe Customer Service during which they inform me that they cannot explain why they are deducting money out of my checking account until AFTER the withdrawal has alread occurred. Unbelievable. Check out this chat with Stripe Customer Service in which they clearly indicate they cannot tell me what a charge is for until AFTER they WITHDRAW IT FROM MY CHECKING ACCOUNT! You can't make this stuff up. So what is this additional $106? Please just provide a breakdown of that amount. Are you unable to do this? If you are unable to figure this out, how do you expect me to be able to? This process should have taken no more than 2 minutes. I'm not trying to be critical or short with you, but it is a very serious issue when customer service cannot instantly explain what a charge like this is for. P Thank you for waiting. As per checking, we don't have yet any visibility of this amount $106.74 until this will be done on April 29, 2024. We will have to wait until April 29 2024. Pardon me? Are you saying you can't tell me what are charging me for until AFTER you charge me? P Yes. Is that acceptable to you as a form of "good business?" Explain please what sense that makes. P I understand but we will have to wait for us to provide the details of this transaction. Well, unfortunately, I rescind any and all permission given to Stripe to withdraw funds from my accounts that Stripe cannot substantiate and explain. Beforehand.

The platform claimed daily payouts The platform claimed daily payouts, but then, due to unknown reasons, they voluntarily changed this period to 1 week for my balance. No notifications, just "because we can" logic. Support refuses to cooperate. If we add here high fees, there's no reason to use this service.
