HN user
Thank you- great feedback! I've found that being quiet about your successes gives you a longer runway to build a moat that makes it more difficult to compete with you
Check out my company OpenPay (getopenpay.com)
I previously bootstrapped a business to 30M ARR and was sick of paying the "subscription tax"

I ran into the same issues / frustrations as you when I bootstrapped my previous business to 30M ARR. I hated paying the "Stripe tax" and having vendor lock in with Stripe

I'm a founder who run into this issue as well in the past. Stripe kicked me off for no reason and with no warning, and my startup almost died.
I started OpenPay to help make it easier to move from Stripe to another payment processor if they kick you off. Feel free to email me at ankit@getopenpay.com and I'll get you set up for free.
