App of the month: Stripe

This month, we are featuring Stripe, a developer-friendly payments platform that makes accepting and managing payments fast and secure while being in a format that allows for international transactions.

Stripe can help you with:

• Easy setup and developer tools for custom integrations.
• Global reach – accept payments in dozens of countries and currencies.
• A wide range of payment methods, including cards, digital wallets and local options.
• Automated recurring billing for subscriptions and memberships.
• Built-in fraud detection and security features.
• A customisable checkout experience to match your brand.
• Streamlined operations with reconciled payments and broad software integrations.

Stripe is a reliable and flexible app that is capable of making a range of financial tasks more straightforward.

For businesses that need a tailored checkout or bespoke payment flows, the APIs and pre-built plugins make development straightforward and allow those businesses to tailor the app to their specific needs.

For those who want a quick launch, the hosted checkout options ensure that there are no delays in getting going.

Its support for multiple payment methods helps reduce checkout friction and improve conversion rates across markets.

Recurring billing and subscription management remove a major administrative headache for membership and SaaS models, while Stripe’s fraud tools use machine learning to improve authorisation rates and reduce chargebacks.

Stripe also helps you manage your record-keeping obligations by recording payments and integrating with accounting and commerce systems to ensure that there is a smooth flow of information across all of your systems.

There is a wide range of customisation that you can utilise to ensure that Stripe is working most effectively for the kind of business that you operate.
