Do you have suggestions for replacements for Stripe Connect for marketplace usage? The combination of being able to calculate fees and cuts before you tell Stripe to pay it out to partners through Stripe Connect seems pretty unique.

There are several other Merchant of Record alternatives, but I have not found something that can do quite the programmatic approach you can with Stripe.

Braintree has a similar product. But they were bought by PayPal several years ago, so you are getting into that mess of a company.

Airwallex is pretty good and it can replace both Stripe and Connect.

I am a customer of their banking service and I played with their APIs. It feels like Stripe at the beginning, hopefully they'll be good for this decade
