European alternatives to stripe
Accept payments through a European payment provider
Browse the category: Payment service providers
stripe is an online payment service provider used to accept card payments and other methods on websites and in apps. Developers choose it for the API, the documentation and the ready made checkout components, while finance teams work in the dashboard for refunds, disputes and payouts. It also covers subscriptions, invoicing and payouts for marketplaces.
Payments touch card data, customer identity and your own settlement flow, which is why banks and regulators watch this layer closely. European sellers often want a payment institution supervised in the EU, settlement in euro and an invoice that does not come with a transfer discussion attached. A European alternative to stripe covers the same ground. mollie and adyen serve merchants of very different sizes, and Mangopay is built around marketplace payouts.

Can I move saved cards to another provider?
Card tokens can normally be migrated between providers that meet the relevant card industry security standards, through a controlled handover rather than an export you do yourself. Ask mollie or adyen how they run that process.
Which European alternative to stripe suits a development team?
mollie and Stancer both publish payment APIs and integration libraries for common frameworks. Compare their documentation and the payment methods your customers actually use.
What if I run a marketplace with multiple sellers?
Mangopay and adyen both work on split payments and payouts to third parties. Clearhaus is worth a look if acquiring is the part you need to change.
