Protect your revenue, simplify PSD2 compliance
Beginning September 2019, PSD2 regulation will require European customers to provide Strong Customer Authentication—or SCA—for many subscription and invoice payments. Stripe Billing helps protect your revenue by identifying which charges require SCA and triggering 3D Secure 2 authentication when required—all with as little friction as possible.
Minimize churn
Banks will decline recurring payments that require SCA unless you obtain authentication from customers. Minimize this churn by letting Stripe automatically email your subscribers to request 3D Secure 2. You can customize the emails to match your brand and create reminders if customers don’t take action.
Seamless invoicing
Stripe Billing lets you send invoices with built-in support for credit and debit cards. The hosted invoice page detects which payments require SCA and seamlessly requests 3D Secure 2 authentication as part of the payment process.
Customizable and comprehensive invoices
Tailor invoices to match your brand, configure templates to display necessary customer and product information, and apply inclusive or exclusive tax rates for different locales.
Invoices, hosted by Stripe
Send recurring invoices for subscriptions or one-off invoices in a few clicks. Get your invoices paid faster by accepting credit and debit card payments, and configure email reminders for invoices that are overdue.
Global templates
Send invoices in 13 different languages, and configure custom text fields, footers, and memos to display all the necessary customer and product information.
Flexible tax modeling
Apply inclusive or exclusive tax rates to individual line items or to whole invoices for specific locales. Download reports detailing how much tax you collected to make remittance simple.
Match your brand
Customize the look and feel of invoices by adding your logo and selecting the color palette. You can even add a personal message like a thank-you note.
From one-time order to lifetime customer
Automate every part of recurring relationships—from managing customer events to retrying failed payments at the ideal time.
Reduce declined payments by up to 45%
Nearly a quarter of churn is caused by missed payments or declined cards. In 2017, Stripe’s recovery tools reduced payment declines for users by 45% on average and increased revenue by 10% on average.
