It basically is always cheaper for almost everything than Stripe (except AMEX). Interchange++ is always less than Stripe's equivalent charge (2.9% or lower for European cards) and 12¢ is less than 30¢.

The page I agree is confusing.

Bear in mind, at any meaningful volume, Stripe does IC++ too and it isn't expensive

edit: Looking at their (listed) acquiring and processing fees, Stripe appears to be cheaper

That said, I don't know how Adyen's support is, but sadly Stripe's is honestly absolutely crap. Every single support interaction I've had with them has been incredibly slow and incredibly painful.

I don't understand where Stripe is showing as being cheaper?

Adyen for example for Mastercard: €0,10 + Interchange++ (average total 0.90% - 1.10%)

Stripe advertised in Europe for Mastercard: €0,25 + 1.4% of transaction.

It's not publicly listed, but from experience, their IC++ costs are decent
