@tumblr I noticed that Tumblr only supports Stripe as the only payment tool. Is there any particular reason? Why can't I use other online payment tools? For example, isn't Paypal more commonly used and easier to use?

Stripe processed 817 billion worth of transactions in 2022.

PayPal 1.36 trillion.

They're pretty comparable and generally stripe is easier to just drop into your code base, as I understand it.

Companies often talk about "becoming the stripe of X" in reference to being the quick and easy solution to whatever problem.

Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
