Whenever you receive payments via Stripe, whether via a Xero invoice or an eCommerce store, you'll automatically see the transaction data flow into Xero and can reconcile each payment with one click.

Absolutely stay away

For a job for which we had issued and received an invoice and which consisted of at least two treatments, our customer demanded a refund, saying to his bank, "They scammed me, I want my money back." A sum of approximately £500 was deducted from our bank account, including a £32 Stripe deduction for the deposited money without our knowledge. Despite our objections and showing all the photos and invoices for the work done, our money was not refunded. They treat customer disputes as if they were courts and make their own decisions. They treated our 9-year-old company like fraudsters and took money from us for it. Absolutely stay away.

Blame Shifting

I use stripe connected to my SAAS product and it works quite well. I've added the integration to Xero, it's just annoying that it takes so long. So I contacted Stripe they said it's actually Xero that holds up the money. In a world where I can instant transfer 7 days a week 24/7 to take 3 Business days feels like a scam. Then who is really to blame for holding up the money Stripe or Xero?

Terrible experience — avoid at all costs!

Our account was shut down without any reason or prior notice. We were fully compliant, yet Stripe chose to act arbitrarily. Do not trust this company with your business. There are dozens of other providers out there—work with someone who actually supports merchants instead of punishing them for nothing. Stripe has become a disgrace in the industry.
