7:05pm Stripe at Doorkeeper - Paul McMahon

Doorkeeper has been using Stripe since the Japanese private beta. We started off by using the Connect API to allow our organizers to collect prepayments. When we started charging organizers to use the platform, we did it using the Stripe Billing API.

This presentation will discuss why Doorkeeper chose to use Stripe, explain the impact of Stripe on our business, and cover some of the challenges we’re currently facing with it.

They allow customers to bring their own stripe account to collect payments via credit cards for their invoices, or help them provision a new one in-app.
