Why businesses switch from Stripe to Synapto, without compromising their UX
As your volume grows, so does the amount going to your processor. Most businesses accept this as normal. It isn't.
With Synapto:Payment failures, chargebacks, frozen settlements. When they happen, you can't afford to wait days for a ticket response.
With Synapto:Stripe's one-size-fits-all model works until it doesn't. Synapto adapts to how your business actually operates.
With Synapto:Most businesses look at Stripe's advertised rate and assume that's what they're paying. It isn't. On top of the standard processing fee, there are scheme fees, international card surcharges, dispute and chargeback fees, and payout costs that don't show up until you're already paying them.
By the time you add it all up, the real cost of Stripe is significantly higher than the number on the tin. Most businesses only find out when they actually do a line-by-line breakdown.
Book a call and we'll do that breakdown for you.1.5-1.9% + 20p
