Stripe is simple and powerful tool for payment gateway

What are the best aspects of this product?

Stripe has simple dashboard and robust API. The documentation on the software API is well written and it is easy to follow. I also love its testability. When I have a test API key and live API key I use the first one for testing the environments and ensures me that the integration with this product is working perfectly in both ways. You can even deploy production confidently without changing the code and you can be sure that everything works the same way when it comes to monetary transactions.

What aspects are problematic or could work better?

What I don’t like about this product is how the API upgrades work, because it’s not very clear and it can be frustrating when I need to switch versions without ability to switch the test version first. Before using the upgraded version I want to try demo version because I want to see how it works and all its functions.

What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?

It helps me to collect payments for a subscription service. The product is simple, provides reporting, cashflow and compliance. PCI Compliance can be difficult for small and midsize business but the team behind Stripe works had to develop functions in order to lessen the PCI compliance.

Are you a current user of this product?

Yes
