Company information
The facts on file
- Description
- Stripe Billing is subscription-management and recurring-revenue software layered on Stripe's own payment processing, covering subscriptions, invoicing, dunning and basic metering from one dashboard. The vendor claims 350,000+ companies use it, naming Atlassian, Figma, Intercom and Anthropic, and positioning skews to SaaS and AI companies already processing on Stripe. As of 2026 advanced usage-based billing is no longer native: it runs through Metronome, which the vendor states is not included in Stripe Billing.

- Regulatory
- Billing feature table lists PCI DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 2 and GDPR; Revenue Recognition is stated as ASC 606 and IFRS 15 compliant (sold separately from $25/mo). Stripe Tax covers calculation in 100+ countries and registration/filing in 90+, and Managed Payments provides merchant-of-record indirect tax compliance in 75+ countries at 3.5%. Stripe states it has obtained regulatory licences worldwide and publishes a register at stripe.com/spc/licenses, but that page was not retrieved this session so no specific licence is verified. Stripe is not a bank; third-party legal commentary (not a regulator source) notes exposure to US state money transmitter laws and CFPB complaint routing — unverified against primary sources.
