I like having different billing options available, but I do think the setup process could be more straightforward. Once you get familiar with the platform, it’s easier to manage. Overall, I think it’s a good option for businesses that need more flexibility with billing. Pros What I like most about Stripe Billing is the flexibility it offers when collecting payments from customers. The invoicing feature allows you to create and send professional invoices, set payment due dates, and track whether payments have been made. I also like the option to set up automatic billing for customers who make recurring payments. Having access to payment history and being able to see outstanding balances is helpful when managing business finances. It takes away some of the work involved with keeping up with payments manually, which is especially helpful when you’re running a small business. Cons I think Stripe could be a little easier to navigate, especially when you’re first getting started. There are quite a few settings to figure out, and some things take more steps than necessary. The processing fees can also add up, especially for smaller businesses. Review Source Casey B. Office Manager Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Value For Money Is Great" September 23, 2026 5.0 The Stripe experience has been wonderful! Its so simple to create a paylink for your clients to click on and pay a balance. I have ours set to automatically deposit next day. Pros Love the ease of being able to set a pay link to send to customers directly. Makes the collection process so easy! Cons As of so far, there is nothing that I don't care for. Its been pretty simple to send payment links and receive payments directly to our account. Review Source Tax Accountant Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Reliable and Convenient for Managing Recurring Payments" September 16, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with Stripe Billing has been positive. It provides a reliable way to manage invoices, recurring subscriptions, and customer payments in one place. The dashboard is organized and generally easy to use once you become familiar with it. I have experienced very few bugs, and payment and bank account management have been reliable. Overall, it is a useful billing solution for businesses that regularly invoice clients or collect recurring payments. Pros Stripe Billing makes invoicing and managing recurring payments much easier. Setting up subscriptions, tracking payments, and checking customer billing information is straightforward. I especially like having invoices, subscriptions, payment history, and bank payout information available in one dashboard. It saves time when managing regular client payments. Cons The pricing and additional fees can become expensive as transaction volume increases. Some of the more advanced subscription and billing settings also have a learning curve at first. Customer support is helpful, but more complicated billing or account issues can sometimes take time to resolve. Review Source Trainer Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Powerful Recurring Invoice Automation with Premium Pricing and Slow Support" September 14, 2026 4.0 Stripe Billing has completely automated our subscription lifecycles, recurring invoices, and tier-based pricing setups with excellent reliability. However, customizing complex billing schedules outside of their standard API flow can feel restrictive. The high convenience factor is heavily balanced by their premium transaction fees and occasionally slow customer service response times when custom setups break. Pros Stripe is incredibly easy to set up and integrate into our platform. The documentation is top-notch, allowing us to accept credit card payments securely from customers worldwide within just a few hours. Its seamless card payment processing and clean user interface make managing transactions effortless. Cons While the platform itself functions well, the customer support can be quite slow to respond when critical bugs or account issues arise. Additionally, the transaction fees can add up quickly for smaller businesses, making it less ideal in terms of overall value for money when starting out. Review Source ASA Adewale Samuel A. HIO Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Apt payment" September 8, 2026 5.0 Overall, I would say that Strip has been good in terms of the turnaround time. The transaction for payments shows up almost immediately, unlike a few other payment platforms. I think this is a unique feature of the application Pros I think Strip understands the need of their users. I have had to worry about a payment that did not completely go through due to a connection outage, but I was able to continue from where I stopped - I think that is exceptional. I am not sure about what is being charged, but I have not had to pay any charge other than what I have purchased from sellers Cons My concern is that the seller might be passing charges on to me, which might be hidden. I care about how much I am really paying to access a service as a user, especially if the cost of the product is not the same for using optional payment platforms Review Source Owner Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Can’t beat free!" September 3, 2026 5.0 I love stripe. I use it to process transactions between clients. It allows them to just click the link and make a payment with a card they have. Pros I loved using stripe because this is one of the only payment systems that do not charge a fee every month. Only pay like 30 cent per transaction Cons There was actually nothing I didn’t like. It was very easy to use and free it can’t get no better than free!! Review Source Insurance agent Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Stripe billing" September 1, 2026 5.0 Pros What I love about stripe billing would be the organization of the software and the access to it. It is also affordable. Cons I do not have any dislikes on using stripe billing. I would recommend this software to users and employers. Review Source Co-Founder Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "We use Stripe as our main payment processor now " August 13, 2026 5.0 Our overall experience with Stripe has been very good. The platform feels modern, scalable, and built for businesses processing a significant amount of online transactions. It provides good visibility into payment activity and has been dependable as our payment needs have grown. Pros Stripe offers a lot of flexibility when it comes to managing online payments. The dashboard is well organized, reporting is detailed, and it works particularly well with ecommerce platforms and other business software. Managing transactions, refunds, and payouts is straightforward. Cons Some of the more advanced settings and features can feel technical and take time to understand. It can also be difficult to quickly determine the cause of certain payment failures or disputes without digging into transaction details. Switched from [PayPal Payments](https://www.capterra.com/p/207944/PayPal/) We were too dependent on one payment processor and we heard bad experiences from other business owners where their payments would be held by PayPal so we wanted to make sure our risk was not too high so we split our payment processors in half (50-50 PayPal and Stripe). Review Source Creator Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Very Useful" June 23, 2026 5.0 Overall it is a great experience and it’s a very organized app to use to keep track of bank statements as well Pros The invoicing and the customer support are very helpful when you are setting up your account for getting payments Cons Sometimes it was a little complicated to set up or understand but otherwise it was not too bad to figure out Review Source Officer Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Easy to use" May 18, 2026 3.0 Pros I like the chance to do recurring invoices, that helps simplify the process and is better than I've seen elsewhere. Cons It can be complicated and nota s easy to use as others that i've implemented. Still overall easy, just not as easy. Review Source Full stack developer Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Visually appealing billing tool" May 6, 2026 5.0 I integrated stripe with Wocommerce and the process was super easy. The checkouts looked amazing and we didn’t have any bug or problem. I usually work with API integrations and this was super cool for me. Saved me a lot of time and the visual experience is better than other billing tools Pros What I liked the most of stripe was how easy was to integrate it on any website made with Wordpress even if it’s you first time using it. You can choose between different options of invoices (subscriptions, one time payment). Their navigation panel is visually appealing and modern which gives trust. And the best part is that is free to install. Cons I find the commissions quite high despite it has less commissions like PayPal for example. Nothing else. Switched from [PayPal Payments](https://www.capterra.com/p/207944/PayPal/) The change was mostly about fees. PayPal fees were super expensive. Alternatives considered [PayPal Payments](https://www.capterra.com/p/207944/PayPal/) Reasons for choosing Stripe Billing Again because stripe gave us more payment options like Apple Pay or google pay and the fees were lower per transaction Review Source CEO Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Stripe is good but not great" January 22, 2026 3.0 I would prefer an alternative because I believe persons all over the world should have the equal opportunities to earn an income whoever they choose to. Pros That is it used by most American businesses. Like 98% businesses in the US have stripe attached or set up in a manner for use. Cons I don't appreciate that it not global and that it makes things difficult for digital marketers and because most people use stripe it's quite difficult especially for those who want to do affiliate marketing to do it with companies who primarily use stripe its like a blockage to international persons Switched from [Stripe Payments](https://www.capterra.com/p/123889/Stripe/) As a digital marketer its difficult and I also prefer to have affiliate marketers assisted to my product from all over the world Review Source Tracie B. Executive Director Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Great product for the price " February 10, 2026 5.0 Above average. Stripe has great security, easy integration with multiple platforms, and very prompt customer service. I am very satisfied overall with stripe as a small business owner and non profit executive director. Pros Stripe is very easy to integrate across multiple platforms (Squarespace, donation pages, etc.) and allows you to see accounts separately - this was incredibly helpful as a non profit. Cons The processing fees were a little on the high side and payouts were often held for inconsistent periods of time. Alternatives considered [Square Payments](https://www.capterra.com/p/170278/Square-Payments-Processing/) Reasons for choosing Stripe Billing Cost of processing fees were lower and was given reputable recommendations to choose stripe from other colleagues Review Source Business Owner Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "It works well and is relatively easy to use." April 2, 2025 4.0 Over all it's great. It works well and it's not too hard to integrate the system with my online store (WordPress - WooCommerce) and other services. Pros I like that I can set up recurring subscription billing for my customers really easily Cons The QuickBooks integration I used is great but I wish there was a free way to sync everything since I am paying fees for processing payments already. Alternatives considered [Rotessa](https://www.capterra.com/p/170269/Rotessa/)[Square Payments](https://www.capterra.com/p/170278/Square-Payments-Processing/) Reasons for choosing Stripe Billing Stripe had all the features I needed in one spot. I didn't have to use multiple services for various payment methods. I had also used Stripe in the past so it was familiar. Review Source Owner Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Adequate but not My Favorite tool" June 6, 2025 4.0 Overall, it's adequate. It works enough for me to keep using it but the fees and delay on payment are pretty big negatives so I'd be willing to change to another product if I could find something better. Pros Stripe is very easy to use. I appreciate that you can do custom line items or build a catalog of frequently billed products. Cons Strip holds your money on their end for a decent chunk of time compared to similar products and fees are pretty high. Switched from [QuickBooks Online Advanced](https://www.capterra.com/p/189398/QuickBooks-Online/) I found QuickBooks Invoicing caused increasing issues with my bookkeeping as the auto logging features don't work well and would sometimes create duplicate entries. Review Source founder, coach Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "recommend stripe for easy payment " February 3, 2025 5.0 Overall I recommend it. Simple learning curve, easy to see sales and take sales.can customise to my brand for the customer. Pros Looks very sleek for the customer and is easy to adapt to your brand style and colours. Cons It took me a while to work out how to set up product and discount code. Switched from [PayPal Payments](https://www.capterra.com/p/207944/PayPal/) Easier to use simpler, clearer and better value for money Review Source Founder Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Big business reliability, perfect for small business owners" November 6, 2025 5.0 Fantastic, I have never needed to shop around - but when I do Stripe still looks like the best option. It suits my small creative organisation perfectly. I'd love to see more features added for access control and multiple users, as well as automated commission calculations for my team. Pros Ease of use. Stripe integrates with my business workflows perfectly, and introduces helpful analytics and additional integration options, all of which are explained well and easy to manage. They also allow both scheduled and instant payouts with minimal clicks, making it really easy flexible for small businesses, or anyone keeping a clsoer eye on cashflow. Cons It can be tricky to manage with multiple ecommerce instances - it's too easy to accidentally allow third parties to configure new stripe accounts rather than interfacing with an existing account. This hwoever is likely the fault of the third party rather than the stripe platform. Review Source Billing and Accounts Administrator Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Simplified recurring invoicing services." July 1, 2025 5.0 It took a lot of the work out of managing subscriptions and reduced the amount of manual invoice chasing we had to do particularly with our hosted telecom infrastructure. Pros Creating recurring plans in Stripe is relatively easy and managing customer billing schedules can be managed directly from the Stripe dashboard. Dunning characteristics also assist us in minimizing churn. Cons We still need dev support for more complicated workflows some things aren’t plug-and-play, particularly when syncing with our CRM. Review Source Jack I. Managing Consultant Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Great commerce solution for most business needs" April 21, 2025 5.0 Generally really good, easy to use and implement and a powerful suite of API features. Pros Absolutely incredible platform with a rich set of features suited for many business commerce needs. Specially like the API for billing/subscription management. Cons Can sometimes be a bit trigger happy on fraud detection, but I can see why this is important. Review Source Junaid H. CEO Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Deliverd Stripe Review" March 20, 2025 5.0 A really great way to process money, transactions, with minimal fees. Pros Very seamless, convenient, and works 100% of the time. Never ran into billing issues or payments. Cons Honestly, nothing. One of the most complete functional app. Review Source Manager Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Super easy!!!" April 2, 2025 5.0 I’ve used this daily for my business. I also used this for my side business. Pros I like how easy and convenient it is. Very user friendly Cons I had no complaints with this application!! Review Source Google Ads Specialist Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "For easy credit/debit payments online" April 17, 2025 4.0 Pros I like that I am able to integrate it into my Xero accounting software to take payment immediately online. I also like that I can pass the Stripe fees onto my customer (as well as offer them fee-free ways to pay via bank transfer etc.) Cons It tends to take a couple days for the payment to clear and appear in my bank account, which can sometimes be a minor inconvenience. Review Source Director of Operations Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Efficient billing system that meets compliance requirements" April 24, 2025 5.0 Pros Integrates with multiple ERP systems, satisfies compliance requirements Cons Integrations can be slow and tedious, often requiring frequent escalation Review Source Owner Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Great and easy to use" April 30, 2025 5.0 Stripe has made it easier for me to get payments for the different products I sell online. Pros Stripe was easy to set up and lets me have more than one "billing" store for the different places I sell products. Cons With more than one login it can be complicated to see what store I'm in. Review Source Executive Director Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "The best way to accept card payments " November 29, 2024 5.0 Pros Integrates seamlessly with my website and other fundraising modes (like ticketed events, product sales) Cons I wish it had a better donor / CRM system. I haven't figured out how to integrate it or optimize it with my donor CRM on my website. Also the fee is higher than other payment systems like PayPal Review Source ## Send me user reviews about this product ### Fill out the form and we'll send a list of the top-rated software based on real user reviews directly to your inbox.
