Title: Seems like every time there&#x27;s a negative Stripe story on here, the inevitable question, &quot;any alternatives?&quot; gets asked. Hell, I was tempted to ask myself. Instead, I decided to search hn.algolia.com to see for myself what others have recommended in the past.<p>Might as well share the list with y&#x27;all, make it meta.<p>--<p>2Checkout | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.2checkout.com<p>Adyen | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.adyen.com<p>Amazon Pay | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pay.amazon.com<p>Authorize.net | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.authorize.net<p>Balance | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.getbalance.com<p>Braintree | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.braintreepayments.com<p>ChargeBee | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.chargebee.com<p>Chargify | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.chargify.com<p>Checkout.com | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.checkout.com<p>DigitalRiver | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.digitalriver.com<p>Dwolla | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.dwolla.com<p>FastSpring | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;fastspring.com<p>GoCardless | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gocardless.com<p>MangoPay | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.mangopay.com<p>Mollie | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.mollie.com<p>Opayo (previously SagePay) | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.opayo.co.uk<p>Paddle | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.paddle.com<p>Payoneer | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.payoneer.com<p>PayPal | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.paypal.com<p>Qonto | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;qonto.com&#x2F;en<p>Spreedly | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.spreedly.com<p>Square | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;squareup.com<p>Verifone | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.verifone.com&#x2F;en&#x2F;us<p>White | https:&#x2F;&#x2F;whitepayments.com<p>--<p>Observations from my data collection:<p>Sassy appears to have been acquired by FastSpring. Balanced Payments apparently went under but I found another payment service called &quot;Balance&quot; instead. Paymill is defunct but their Github org has a bunch of code. No idea what happened to Spryng Payments but Spryng still exists.<p>It&#x27;s also worth mentioning that a true &quot;Stripe alternative&quot; simply does not exist. No one does everything they do and I&#x27;m pretty sure most services are lacking in the developer documentation department. Still, having options is always great.
