We review your current Stripe setup or your planned architecture at no cost and show you exactly what is leaking revenue, where the risk is, and what to build next. If you want it done, we scope a fixed engagement: Payment Element, Billing, Connect, webhooks, reconciliation, and fraud rules built properly from the start.
A first Stripe integration is usually wired together quickly: the happy path works, payments go through, and everyone moves on. Then the business grows, billing gets more complex, the first invoice dispute lands, and the gaps in the original work become expensive problems. Missed webhooks, broken reconciliation, no dunning, no fraud rules, no plan for a second currency or a marketplace payout model.
We look at what you have before quoting anything. The audit is free because it is the only honest way to scope the work: we map the gaps, estimate the revenue impact of each one, and tell you what to prioritise. If the numbers do not justify an engagement, we will say so. You keep the findings either way.
No procurement loop, no open-ended retainer, no day-rate negotiation. The whole front end runs on one form and one call.
Work email and a short description of what you are using today or what you are planning to build. Read-only Stripe dashboard access speeds things up, but it is not required.
We map your current or planned architecture against Stripe best practices: webhook handling, subscription lifecycle, reconciliation flows, Connect topology if relevant, and Radar rule coverage.
A short call to walk through what we found, the revenue and risk impact of each gap, and the order we would fix them. You keep the audit either way.
If you want it built, we scope a fixed engagement: a concrete deliverable list, a timeline, and a price before any work begins. You see exactly what you are buying.
Most payment engineering problems fall into one of three shapes. We have done all of them, and we know where each one hides its complexity.
Payment Element and Checkout for one-time and recurring payments, with full webhook handling for the complete payment lifecycle: succeeded, failed, disputed, and refunded. PCI scope reduction by design, not as an afterthought.
Stripe Billing for subscription products, usage-based and metered pricing, trial periods, plan upgrades and downgrades, proration, invoicing, Stripe Tax for automatic tax collection, and a dunning sequence that recovers failed payments rather than churning the customer.
Stripe Connect for marketplace and platform payout models: onboarding, identity verification, charge routing, split payments, transfer schedules, and the compliance layer for money movement across a network of connected accounts. We do not hold your funds. We build the integration that lets Stripe handle them properly.
Want the depth? Every one of these is broken down with architecture diagrams and implementation notes in the complete Stripe integration guide. This page gets you the free audit; the guide is the reference.
Every item in the audit follows the same structure: what is wrong, the data behind it, the revenue or risk impact, and the exact fix ready to implement. The card on the right is illustrative. Your audit is built from your own integration.
This particular finding type appears in almost every production Stripe integration we review. It is quiet, it compounds, and it is straightforward to close once you know it is there.
Store event.id in processed_events table on first delivery Check for existing record before processing any webhook Return 200 immediately if event already handled Add unique constraint on (stripe_event_id) column
A focused payment page is a different scope to a full Connect marketplace. We match the engagement to the work after the audit, and you see the price before any work begins.
Payments engineering and integration work runs through a lot of what we build. A few that map closely to a Stripe engagement:
Moving a SaaS product from a legacy billing system to Stripe Billing without dropping a single active subscription during the cutover.
Building Stripe Connect for a two-sided marketplace: seller onboarding, charge routing, and automated payout schedules across 500 connected accounts.
Implementing usage-based billing with Stripe Billing Meter, reconciliation pipeline, and a dunning sequence that cut involuntary churn by 30%.
