It’s not very well hidden, it took me around 15s to figure it out from the main page. They are also trying to diversify (obviously).

The landing also doesn't clearly answer if they use their own stripe or we need to connect our own stripe account.

  • That feedback is very well received, thank you.

    Currently you set up a new Stripe Connect account to get started. We tried the "connect existing account" flow and discovered that, maybe due to regulations or Stripe policies, we weren't able to debit the existing accounts.

    Our Stripe flow is different from the run of the mill billing SaaS because we're involved in the movement of money (rather than simply using your Stripe key to steer API requests on your behalf).

    We know that makes us look a bit like a fish with legs while we grow towards where we want to be.

    • I believe that means you are more or less setting yourself up as a payment facilitator, meaning you and your other merchants will be kicked off Stripe at any time if too many of your merchants misbehave. Is your compliance team ready for that?
