I'd love to hear why you were going to stop your Stripe usage. Totally understand if it was for the sake of consolidation, but if there were product needs that we weren't hitting it'd be great to know :).

Without pre-funding and escrow it's really hard to manage B2B relationships with the Stripe feature set. Ease of disbursement is a use case that made us choose Balanced over Stripe in the first place

Lack of prefunding and escrow was/is a huge one for us.

Definitely consolidation. And we were generally happy with Balanced.

Lack of pre-funding/escrow was not a big factor, but I can see how it can become one.
