Have you used Stripe to collect payments?

With Stripe businesses of all sizes - from startups to large enterprises can accept payments, send payouts, and manage their businesses online.

It's easy to set-up and maintain. Thanks to their API, developers can integrate custom payment solutions in their apps.

Have you ever used it for any of your projects?
What's your experience and would you recommend it to others?

Yes, used it for a few Laravel projects, really grateful for the Laravel Cashier package which makes things a lot easier.

I would also suggest trying out Paddle as an alternative.

The nice thing about Paddle and FastSpring is that they take care of all the tax stuff.

In the first time Paddle looks good when you look at their documentation it is lacking. I also can see that they are using old Callback method for their API so i am expecting too much hassle inside their code internally.

Also i really don't want to make every method coming from their API wrapped inside Promise

new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
   Paddle.method((e, data) => {
     if(e){
       return reject(e)
     } else {
      return resolve(data)
     }
   })
})
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Does that looks good to you guys ? For a payment platform ?
