- Connect your own Stripe accountPaste a restricted Stripe key and your venture can charge cards, run subscriptions and chase failed payments. Full control, if you already know Stripe.
- Connect PaddlePaddle becomes the legal seller, so global sales tax and VAT are theirs rather than yours. Roughly 5% instead of 2.9%, and worth it for most people.
- Connect PolarA merchant of record built for developers: sales tax handled, roughly 4%, and the fastest signup of the three. Good for digital products and subscriptions.
- Connect Lemon SqueezyA merchant of record for digital products at 5%. One-off sales only in kitty, because Lemon Squeezy bills subscriptions from the product itself.

- Connect AirwallexGlobal card acceptance, strongest in Asia-Pacific — and the same credential also shows your multi-currency balances in the Finance panel.
