Q. What is Stripe?

A. Stripe Payments is a payment processing platform. It allows you to transfer money from a customer's bank account into your business's account by way of a credit or debit card transaction, more information can be found here:STRIPE FAQ..

Q. Is Stripe Safe?

A. Stripe has been audited by a PCI-certified auditor and is certified to PCI Service Provider Level 1. This is the most stringent level of certification available in the payments industry. To accomplish this, they use the best-in-class security tools and practices to maintain a high level of security at Stripe.

HTTPS and HSTS for Secure Connections Stripe forces HTTPS for all services using TLS (SSL), including our public website and the Dashboard. Stripe.js is served only over TLS. SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and its successor, TLS (Transport Layer Security), are protocols for establishing authenticated and encrypted links between networked computers. Stripe’s official libraries connect to Stripe’s servers over TLS and verify TLS certificates on each connection.

Stripe regularly audits the details of implementation, including the certificates served, the certificate authorities used, and the ciphers supported. HSTS is used to ensure that browsers interact with Stripe only over HTTPS. Stripe is also on the HSTS preloaded lists for both Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox.

Encryption of Sensitive Data and Communication All card numbers are encrypted at rest with AES-256. Decryption keys are stored on separate machines. None of Stripe’s internal servers and daemons can obtain plaintext card numbers but can request that cards are sent to a service provider on a static allow list. Stripe’s infrastructure for storing, decrypting, and transmitting card numbers runs in a separate hosting environment, and doesn’t share any credentials with Stripe’s primary services (API, website, etc.).

Q. Which is Better, PayPal or Stripe?

A. Stripe vs. PayPal, a quick comparison: Both charge 2.9% + $0.30 cents per online transaction. Basically, it comes down to which one you would like to use. In fact, if you’d like, you can offer both payment methods to your buyers.
