Truvora vs. Stripe
Stripe pioneered developer-first payments, then priced every extra feature on top. Truvora is the drop-in alternative: the same API and feature set, one lower flat rate, and real human support that actually answers. Here's exactly how the two stack up.

Why teams pick Truvora over Stripe
The API feels identical. The bill and the experience don't.
A flat rate, not a growing stack of fees
Stripe starts at 2.9% + $0.30, but billing, invoicing, and revenue recognition each add their own percentage. Most teams land at a 3.1%–3.4% effective rate. Truvora is a flat 2.6% + $0.25 with those features included, so the price you see is the price you pay.
Everything included, not nickel-and-dimed
Subscriptions, metered billing, invoicing, ASC 606 revenue recognition, and native accounting sync all come standard. On Stripe the same capabilities are paid add-ons or third-party apps you stitch together and pay for separately.
Support that answers in hours
Stripe's support is famously slow, and a dedicated migration team is reserved for enterprise. Every Truvora account gets human support with a median response measured in hours and a migration specialist to help you switch.
Questions about switching
- Is Truvora really a drop-in replacement for Stripe?
- Yes. Truvora mirrors Stripe's endpoints, objects, and webhooks, so in most cases you swap your base URL and API keys without rewriting your integration.
- How does the pricing actually compare?
- Stripe advertises 2.9% + $0.30, but billing, invoicing, and revenue recognition add extra percentages that push most teams to a 3.1%–3.4% effective rate. Truvora is a flat 2.6% + $0.25 with those features included.
- Can I move my existing Stripe data?
- Our 1-click migration imports customers, subscriptions, payment methods, and tokenized cards from Stripe. You keep your history and your customers keep their saved cards.
- What about features Stripe charges extra for?
- Subscriptions, metered billing, invoicing, ASC 606 revenue recognition, and native accounting sync are all included in Truvora's flat rate, with no add-on subscriptions.
