    Do you use Stripe Connect feature for Subscription model? Or just allow users to add their own Stripe account?

      Hey, we use Stripe Connect and integrate with it, users need to connect their Stripe account.

        Oh I thought client/users don't need to add their own Stripe account when website owner use Stripe Connect. And the payment comes to Website owner Stripe Connect account and he needs to distribute/send it to the cleint.

          Our customers are businesses. They accept payments from their customers, so they have to have their own Stripe accounts.

          Stripe Connect allows you to manage other Stripe standard accounts.

    Congrats Maciej!
    4% CR from visitors to signups is pretty good, keep it up!
