Developer Perspective

The API design is a masterclass. Documentation is the best in the industry. If you're building anything that takes payments, Stripe is the default choice and for good reason.

Reality Check

Ship

Pricing is higher than competitors but the reliability and feature set justify it. The AI fraud detection alone pays for the premium. You can't put a price on not dealing with chargebacks.

Big Picture

Stripe is quietly becoming the financial infrastructure for the internet. Atlas, Treasury, Issuing — they're building the operating system for internet businesses.
