I appreciate the offer. We are very much working closely with you on implementation and have from the start (over 6 years spanning many of your products). I am very familiar with all of your offerings.

The core of stripe is great, we’re fans. But as you add any complexity you end up with a mess of various internal account balances to maintain. It forces you into gross things like bin packing refunds, complex internal transfer fail handling. Toss in the inconsistent handling across connect and man, you’d be better off just going back to basic charges and ignoring all the value adds.
