MAXIMISE THE EFFICIENCY OF YOUR RECURRING ONLINE SUBSCRIPTION PAYMENTS

If you are in the process of setting up your online business, whether you provide a SaaS solution, video games, or a BtoC or BtoB subscription model, you know how crucial it is to have a reliable and efficient payment provider. Many digital players start their adventure with providers known for their rapid onboarding process, but sometimes find themselves in a hurry to find a new provider after being banned after a few months.

3 lessons learned from DataBright's analysis of over 100 Stripe account closures

 

Lesson 1: Stripe is turning its back on merchants operating at the frontier of digital goods, education/coaching and adjacent high-risk activities.


When Stripe started out, it targeted businesses that didn't yet exist.

Those days are now gone. The majority of businesses analysed are young entrepreneurs heavily influenced by the YouTube entrepreneur generation. Companies selling digital products such as workout programs, diet programs, cryptocurrency or stock advice, video editing, betting or OnlyFans consultants, etc. are being scrutinised more closely than before.

Initially they are allowed to trade, but as soon as they come under scrutiny involving a human being, the account is quickly closed as it is too risky, although some of these businesses generate $100,000 a month.

 

Lesson 2: E-merchants must be able to present evidence to prove that they are running a legitimate business.


Despite what many online influencers say, that all it takes for merchants to start generating real revenue is an LLC, a bank account and a Stripe account, they also need to develop verifiable processes.

Selling on Instagram, or TikTok, without capturing leads in a CRM, organising a sales call, sending an invoice, etc. will eventually put you out of business.

Stripe is asking for more and more ways to verify that you are building a "real" business, and not just "hustling" online.

After having serious problems with another PSP which froze our accounts after just six months, HiPay not only helped us get back on the right foot, they also played a key role in increasing our turnover. In three years, our turnover has quadrupled, thanks to their expertise and active support. - Laurent M.

Lesson 3: Excessive breaches of risk exposure will no longer be tolerated.


Stripe has never been a fan of chargebacks, but it was an important part of their business model. Because Stripe uses other acquirers, risk issues are passed on, which can eventually lead to massive fines.

Stripe has therefore put a lot of effort into redeveloping their business model around this issue. Why only charge when it happens, if you can charge even when it doesn't? Radar now charges merchants 0.4% per transaction, while using machine learning to assess risk and mitigating it through the use of 3DS to shift liability to the issuer.

But with the business models discussed above, much fraud is not necessarily malicious, but rather due to inexperience or friendly fraud. However, Stripe no longer cares. It wants to keep growing and get rid of merchants who are causing too many problems or who aren't prepared to pay the extra fees to stay in the game.
