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 👋
