How big of a mount are you talking. Also note that its not like PayPal where you can keep balance to use later. Stripe takes its fee, and then sends you the rest to your bank. Also you can't directly turn your PayPal balance to stripe balance (or send it to stripe via a card). You might be able to find someone that is willing to to transfer PayPal to stripe for a fee on mcm though.

You will not be able to create an account on Stripe if you are under 18.

If you are using your parents' ID, then I suppose you can conduct business. My personal experience with Stripe has been fairly positive.

Stripe is a payment gateway, not a psuedo-bank like PayPal. It allows you to process cards, Google Pay and other services (depending on location, in India I can only use card) and therefore you can't have PayPal sent to it.

Do not expect to have a balance like PayPal. It will transfer your pending payments to your bank (you must have one) every few days.

If your customers have and can use cards, it is a good idea. Otherwise nope

Thanks, and yeah i do have a credit card.

It's better because it's not paypal

Starting in Aug, Paypal is going to rising their fees even higher. So that is why stripe is better for me.
