I sell my products on shopify and customer receieved their items they all are happy no issue with any customer. Stripe hold my fund and close my account as i did not know why they reject my account we are doing business in uae from last 9 years i provide all business verification never trust on stripe ----- ### "Extremely Frustrating Experience with Stripe" — 1.0/5 > **Rodel** | *16 September 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Initially, doing business with stripe was fine. > > **Cons**: Stripe can place holds on your funds or freeze your accounts without warning, especially if it deems a business as "high risk," often without clear communication. Stripe lacks direct phone support in many regions, making it challenging to resolve urgent issues quickly. > > We've been using \#Stripe since October 2021, and initially, everything worked fine. However, things took a frustrating turn when Stripe suddenly labeled our business as "high risk" without providing any evidence and placed an indefinite hold on our payouts. Despite submitting all the requested documentation and proving our compliance, their support team has failed to give any clear reason or transparency behind this decision. This lack of communication has severely impacted our business operations, and it's unacceptable for a company that relies on consistent cash flow. To make matters worse, Stripe doesn’t provide a local contact support number, making it even harder to resolve these issues. Stripe's handling of this situation has been deeply disappointing, and we strongly caution other businesses considering their service. ----- ### "Stripe- works solid for small businesses" — 4.0/5 > **John** | *16 July 2026* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Stripe is great at allowing my customers to pay online for their bills. I like that it seems secure and the customer's data is secure and safe as well. > > **Cons**: The integration into the website form was extremely difficult, but once it is setup it works solid. Also, you have to wait 2 days to get paid, yet my old processor paid next day, so that takes some adjustment- not a deal breaker, but is it really necessary? They just offered next-day payment, but you have to pay extra to get it\! That seems unfair to small businesses. > > overall, I'm right in the middle...between the difficult setup, to the lag in getting payment, eh, but it works very good and my customers are comfortable with it, so it's not all negative at all. ----- ### "A reliable, developer-friendly payment solution that scales with your business" — 5.0/5 > **Louis** | *22 May 2026* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Stripe has been a game-changer for our business. The setup process was incredibly smooth — we were able to start accepting payments within just a few hours. What I appreciate the most is the developer-friendly API and the extensive documentation, which makes integration straightforward, whether you're handling one-off payments, The wide range of supported payment methods (cards, SEPA, BANK transfers, etc.) > > **Cons**: The transaction fees can be difficult to manage, especially for businesses with high volumes , connected Customer support is mostly handled via email or chat, and while the team is professional, response times can sometimes be slow for urgent issues. A more direct phone support option would be appreciated. > > verall, Stripe is one of the most powerful and reliable payment processing platforms on the market. It strikes a great balance between ease of use for non-technical users and flexibility for developers. Despite the fee structure and occasional support delays, the platform's reliability, feature set, and global reach make it an excellent choice for businesses of all sizes. I would definitely recommend Stripe to any company looking for a modern, scalable payment solution. ----- ### "BEWARE\! Stripe will steal your money" — 1.0/5 > **Jennifer** | *25 June 2026* | Veterinary Software | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: There is not one single pro I can give Stripe. The only reason we "chose" stripe was because our PIMS, Daysmart, selected this company and recommended it. > > **Cons**: Shady, incompetent, non-responsive, criminal, automated, outsourced, slanderous, no support, unbearable wait times with call centers who have no knowledge, empathy or understanding. > > WARNING TO SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS: STAY FAR AWAY FROM STRIPE Our experience with Stripe has been nothing short of a nightmare. We are a small, privately owned veterinary hospital that has spent years serving our community and caring for people's pets. Despite operating a legitimate business with documented transactions, Stripe suddenly withheld and removed nearly $7,000 from our account, placing a significant financial burden on our practice. What makes this situation even worse is the lack of meaningful support. Trying to get answers felt like running into a brick wall. We received generic responses, little transparency, and virtually no accountability while thousands of dollars that our business depended on remained inaccessible. For a small business, $7,000 is not a minor inconvenience. That money pays employees, covers medical supplies, supports patient care, and keeps the doors open. The fact that a company with Stripe's resources can freeze or remove funds while providing inadequate communication is deeply concerning. If you are a small business owner—especially a veterinary clinic, medical practice, or family-owned company—think very carefully before trusting Stripe with your payment processing. Based on our experience, the financial risk is simply too high. We expected a payment processor. Instead, we got stress, uncertainty, and thousands of dollars tied up with little explanation. We would never recommend Stripe to another small business. ----- Page: 1 / 136\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/123889/stripe?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/123889/stripe) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
