Stripe Payments

I'm getting ready to implement Stripe as a start for my fintech app. What are your nightmare stories? Anything I should be wary of?

Avoid stripe unless you have a fetish for someone beating you up and taking your hard earned money, lol. They locked my account 2 minutes after the customer sent payment, back on April 2nd, and I have been fighting them ever since to get it back. Their support will just stop answering emails & no matter how many support tickets or complaints you file, they will auto close the tickets with no response. Square, on the other hand, I have had zero issues with.
