Make it make sense.
This is why Stripe is so massive.
They aren't even the largest payment processing platform, so how can you say that?
IIRC Adyen (who we rarely see talked about on HN) processes a higher payment volume that stripe.
EDIT: Looked in my email because I remembered contacting Adyen two years ago. They will refuse business with you if you're:
- In these specific industries[1]
- Not located within Adyen’s acquiring regions[2]
- Processing less than 5000 transactions a month
- Not using one of our partner platforms[3]
In my case, I did not fulfill their last two points. So like I said in the OP, Stripe will never have competition. Developers are able to get up and running fairly quickly. No one else seems to care about that.

I haven't tried LemonSqueezy, I'll check them out. Interestingly, Paddle and LemonSqueezy have the same pricing: 5% + 50¢.
EDIT: Seems like LemonSqueezy is for more suitable for digital goods like downloads. I don't see how I could use it for my domain registrar business.
