Show HN: List of Stripe Alternatives Seems like every time there's a negative Stripe story on here, the inevitable question, "any alternatives?" gets asked. Hell, I was tempted to ask myself. Instead, I decided to search hn.algolia.com to see for myself what others have recommended in the past. Might as well share the list with y'all, make it meta. -- 2Checkout | https://ift.tt/FUvmRTP Adyen | https://www.adyen.com Amazon Pay | https://pay.amazon.com Authorize.net | https://ift.tt/lhfZBj5 Balance | https://ift.tt/cjYSh9v Braintree | https://ift.tt/1fQGcbk ChargeBee | https://ift.tt/e9ITCZb Chargify | https://ift.tt/Iikf8cP Checkout.com | https://ift.tt/Ydex1O6 DigitalRiver | https://ift.tt/rE5HaW3 Dwolla | https://www.dwolla.com FastSpring | https://fastspring.com GoCardless | https://gocardless.com MangoPay | https://ift.tt/Q6jLrtc Mollie | https://www.mollie.com Opayo (previously SagePay) | https://www.opayo.co.uk Paddle | https://www.paddle.com Payoneer | https://ift.tt/yLM4k61 PayPal | https://www.paypal.com Qonto | https://qonto.com/en Spreedly | https://ift.tt/8WrDvG6 Square | https://squareup.com Verifone | https://ift.tt/YkULXt5 White | https://ift.tt/nJsrihq -- Observations from my data collection: Sassy appears to have been acquired by FastSpring. Balanced Payments apparently went under but I found another payment service called "Balance" instead. Paymill is defunct but their Github org has a bunch of code. No idea what happened to Spryng Payments but Spryng still exists. It's also worth mentioning that a true "Stripe alternative" simply does not exist. No one does everything they do and I'm pretty sure most services are lacking in the developer documentation department. Still, having options is always great. January 7, 2023 at 03:49AM
Show HN: Tape It, iOS recording app for musicians Hello HN, Over the last 15 months, two friends and I developed the music recording app we felt we wanted based on our own needs as musicians. It's called Tape It [1] and has just recently hit the Apple App Store [2]. We put a lot of effort into a good UX to help musicians really focus on playing their instrument instead of pretending to be a recording engineer. The app records in stereo on newer iPhones (although that's a premium feature; the free version only records in standard mono audio quality). I would be really grateful for advice from this community on how to best approach marketing. We had a great TechCrunch article covering our launch [3], and we posted it on various music websites. Turns out advertising on Google or Apple Search is a dark art, though. We have some good ideas for developing a good social media presence, but they will take time. Please hit us with feedback, opinions and advice that you think a young ind...
