Choosing the Best Payment Processor for Your Online Business in 2025
Wondering which payment processor is right for your online store? In this episode, Maria Sparagis (CEO of DirectPayNet) explains the crucial differences between popular PSPs like Stripe, PayPal, Braintree, and getting your own dedicated merchant account.
What you’ll learn:
- How Stripe and PayPal work for startups vs. scaling businesses
- Hidden fees you might be ignoring
- Why your business might outgrow Stripe sooner than you think
- How a merchant account can increase your approval rates and protect you from sudden shutdowns
- Easy integration tips that debunk the “merchant accounts are hard” myth
Whether you sell digital products, subscriptions, coaching, or physical goods, this guide will help you pick the best payment processor in 2025 to maximize your revenue and keep your business stable.
