  "what": "Merchant of record covering 220+ countries with unusually strong India and emerging-market support. Charges 4% + $0.40 on domestic US transactions, plus 1.5% for international cards and 0.5% for subscriptions. Handles tax compliance, chargebacks and invoicing across 40+ payment methods and 80+ currencies.",
  "why": "The practical choice if you are based outside the US or EU — India especially — where Stripe onboarding and payouts are painful, while still giving you merchant-of-record tax coverage.",
  "warn": "The headline 4% is only a base rate: international cards, subscriptions and buy-now-pay-later stack surcharges that can push real cost past 6%. Payouts under $1,000 carry a $5 fee and USD SWIFT transfers cost $25.",
