We saw a neat infographic from Alignable that ranks some of the most trusted brands as voted by small business owners like you. And something caught our eye.

Occupying the #2 spot is Stripe! Which makes it THE most trusted payment processor (even above PayPal), and only second to Amazon as the most trusted company out of ALL companies ranked by Alignable. (Check it out below!) It even ranks above Google... which is pretty impressive!

Wait, what’s Stripe?

To get money from online sales, you need a payment processor to handle the financial stuff.

Stripe hooks up with ecommerce systems to get money from your customers to your bank account.

Why do I care?

Well, the payment processor you use matters.

Different ones charge different fees. You need to know that you can get your money fast and transactions will be safe, secure and protected.

PhotoBiz uses Stripe. And you can, too!

When you set up an online store or take payments through a form, you’ll be asked to select your merchant – and we have a lot of options! Paypal, Authorize.net, Itransact, Payflow Pro, PayJunction and (drum roll, please...) Stripe!
