Why I love paying Stripe fees (and you should too)

Someone messaged me this the other day:

“Someone paid me $2,000… but Stripe took fees! Should I avoid Stripe?”

Short answer?

No.

Longer answer?

Still no.

Stripe takes around 3%…

That’s $60 on $2,000.

The price of two sad airport sandwiches and a bottle of lukewarm water.

But here's what you actually get:

→ Money in your account → No chasing invoices → No weird PayPal links from 2014

You're not losing 3%.

You're buying speed.

You're buying sanity.

You're buying scale.

It’s small-thinking.

Short-term. Distracted energy.

The real wins come from focusing on high-leverage moves:

→ Systems that get you leads every day → Offers that are high converting → Ops automation (like stripe)

You grow by adding zeros, not by sweating over cents.

So stop asking, “How can I save 3%?” and start asking,

“How do I make 300% more?”

Let Stripe do Stripe things.

You? You go build something worth paying fees for.

See you all next Thursday 👋
