Comment on Tell HN: Stripe closed my GPT-3 G.Sheet addon because they think I “sell essays”parent

Comments

It still takes effort to switch and there may be an issue with the original payment provider retaining your funds.

I haven't seen a case where Stripe doesn't retain 1-2 weeks worth of revenue "to handle refunds".

OP also is subscription based, and if he used Stripe's tooling to implement the subscription process, they're holding a lot of customer data hostage.

(Which is why you shouldn't touch these "helpful" all in one solutions in the first place, but it's an easy enough mistake to make.)

Are there any payment providers that let you migrate a customer subscription to a competitor?

This isn't solely a Stripe problem, yes.
