    Stripe is often seen as the gold standard for international and cross-border payments. But in reality, many founders, especially those outside the US, have a different experience: Merchants are frequently offboarded without much explanation.

    Stripe is great, but is not simple. You end up handling many webhooks, mirroring Stripe data, tracking subscription states, and hardcoding feature checks.
