Why do you use Stripe?

Our number one reason for using Stripe is efficiency.  Stripe allows us to tightly integrate our payments with the system.  When you sign up for a paid account you get almost instant access to all the services without having to wait for someone to update your account.

Similarly, when you purchase SMS credits, they are instantly available for use.

It also means that from an accounting point of view we have all funds coming in from a single source, which reduces our administrative overhead.  We simply could not offer this service at such a great price otherwise.

There are a number of other reasons for using Stripe...

• Stripe is an industry standard for online payments.
• Stripe is secure.
• Stripe is easy to use.
• Stripe allows you to select from a variety of payment sources, including credit cards or direct debit.
• Stripe provides us with detailed reports of transaction activity.
• Stripe acts as an unbiased mediator in the unlikely event of a payment dispute.
• Stripe does not require you to create and manage an account (unlike PayPal).
