Stripe is not available in my country.
by
Bhakti Pasaribu
Stripe is not available in my country. What are other payment processors for SaaS business?
Hey, one option is Paddle: https://paddle.com/
They take a bit higher % per transaction ( 5% + .50c ) than their competitors, but they have a lot of cool features and their support is fast and awesome.
I have the same issue, I'm from Uruguay, and is not available here, so I use Paypal in my SaaS (https://viralquotesonline.com).
It wasn't so easy to set up, because the documentation is a little confussing, but at least is accepted worldwide.
How much is the fee?
I'm trying to use http://2checkout.com but they're asking for social security number which I don't have.
The fees are:
But, I can't transfer the incomes to an Uruguayan account, but I can transfer them to my credit card, it's not ideal, but it works for now.
Not worldwide. We in Ukraine have neither Stripe nor PayPal (with the latter one can pay but not receive). Which is a shame, because we have a lot of talent here.
Thanks sucks @PaulD. Are you in Saas business too, what do you use now?
Nope, not SaaS. I'm in mobile app business (Android currently), so I'm just using in-app purchases. But I have friends who really struggle without Stripe. One of them now considers incorporating in the US and flying there to open a bank account, just to be able to receive payments through Stripe.
I could also make an extra buck from e.g. writing paywalled Medium stories if I had Stripe.
I was thinking the same like your friends. For me the closest country that supports Stripe would be Singapore. I might do that if my business starts growing, right now I'll just find an alternative.
yeah, I can't withdrawal the money to my local bank account, but I can transfer it to my credit card. As I said, is not the best solution, but as don't handle big numbers, is ok for now...
