Stripe is the most widely used payment processor for online businesses. It handles credit cards, digital wallets, bank transfers, and localized payment methods across 40+ countries, all through a single integration.
Students can pay for your courses the way they prefer, whether that’s Apple Pay, Google Wallet, Cash App, Affirm (buy now, pay later), or a selection of region-specific options.
Why Course Creators Choose Stripe
