Why your store needs the Stripe 

Stripe is considered the gold standard when it comes eCommerce. It’s reliable and because of this, has a high conversation payment rate. Here’s how Stripe helps your business:

Payments: With a fully integrated platform, you can accept and set up recurring payments. 

Billing: Stripe offers a flexible billing model that allows you to bill once-off or regularly. If you have a promotion on the site, you can adjust billing to include usage-based, tiered, or promotion-based payments.

The Stripe plugin for WooCommerce
