Shopify or stripe

never choose stripe esp for dropshipping. I never even dropshipped and they blocked my account with funds in it. 8 month have passed and they never refunded me the balance. now i have to choose legal ways to do it.
 
I think it depend if your stripe account is fresh or not cause you will go through a lot of process with the Stripe KYC team otherwise.
Depend also if you really want to switch between two dashboard (Shopify + Stripe) or one centralized dashboard like Shopify itself.

Switch to Stripe only if :
- You sell internationally / multi-currency
- You need advanced fraud protection
- You are in a high-risk industry (depend on how your revenues are)

Stripe it’s best solution I have instant payout
 
Stick with your established Shopify Payments account for primary use.

It's built for Shopify and reduces friction. However, add Stripe as a secondary payment gateway for redundancy and to capture customers who prefer its checkout. This protects you if one processor holds funds or has an outage. Don't migrate your main history away from Shopify Payments.
 
I didn't understand what you meant.
 
If you already have a strong Shopify Payments history, that’s a big advantage — it builds trust and reduces payout risk. Stripe can be great for scaling, but it depends on your business model and risk level. Both can work well together if you keep clean processing and don’t push volume too fast. The main key is not the processor itself, but how stable your chargebacks, refunds, and dispute rates are.
 
i would definitely recommend to scale with shopify payment if u re account ofc has a good history and passed few reviews especially the stock verification, it was more stable than stripe that can get down for way stupid reasons than shopify payments
 
Stripe is great for scaling, but it really depends on your needs. If Shopify Payments is working well and has a strong history, you might stick with it
 
Stripe is often better for scaling due to its lower transaction fees at high volumes, powerful API for customization, and direct integration options beyond Shopify. However, don't switch a stable Shopify Payments history lightly- test Stripe with a portion of your traffic first to avoid disrupting your primary revenue stream.
 
For me stripe has worked great, but in the beginning I stayed with shopify payments. Stripe gives a lot more flexibility,
 
I think I'll work on a percentage or sell them; I'll make more money that way.
 
I have shopify payment with big history but I don’t know I want to scale stripe it’s better ?
If your Shopify Payments account already has solid history, that’s usually worth keeping because stability matters more than switching for the sake of it. Stripe is good, but scaling safely depends on keeping consistent info, low dispute rates, and healthy processing patterns. If what you have is working well, it’s often better to grow with it rather than start fresh on a new gateway.

Exactly
 
Honestly, we've tested a lot of things lately, and Thai Stripe is clearly the easiest to use.

No random blocking or suspension, much more flexible moderation

if you don't ship or sell in a sensitive niche, this is the best option right now.
 
Scaling with Stripe is typically better for flexibility and growth if your Shopify Payments history is robust, but make sure your account risk profile is sound.
