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.
Products
Stripe Billing (subscriptions, invoicing, dunning), Meters API metering (up to 100M events/month), Metronome usage-based billing (separately priced), Stripe Invoicing, Stripe Tax (Basic / Complete), Revenue Recognition (ASC 606 / IFRS 15), Stripe Sigma and Data Pipeline, Radar (fraud), Workflows, Managed Payments (merchant of record)
Markets
Startups, SMB, Mid-market, Enterprise, SaaS and digital subscription businesses, Developer-led teams
Integrations
Stripe Payments (cards, wallets, ACH, Klarna and 100+ payment methods), Stripe Checkout and Payment Links, Stripe-hosted customer portal (custom domain +$10/mo), Billing/Meters API and Billing Scripts, Metronome (signup.metronome.com), Stripe Tax, Revenue Recognition, Sigma / Data Pipeline warehouse sync
Pricing
0.7% of Billing volume (pay-as-you-go, USD, US site) on top of payment processing fees · free tier: None. No setup, monthly or closure fees on standard pay-as-you-go, but Billing is charged from the first transaction at 0.7% of Billing volume. pricing page ↗
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.
