Stripe
Stripe

Stripe's guaranteed bank payments live inside Link as Instant Bank Payments, and Stripe decides when they appear. Eligibility is set dynamically by Stripe's risk systems, is shown by default only under $7,500, and is priced like a card at 2.6% + $0.30. Customer-initiated disputes are excluded and debit the merchant plus a fee. Everything else falls back to ACH Direct Debit, which is not guaranteed, can take up to four business days, and charges $4 per failed payment.

Aeropay

Aeropay puts the merchant in control of pay by bank. Every eligible payment runs through the same guarantee, with 100% guaranteed ACH deposits, and a 90% approval rate backed by Guard's real-time AI risk scoring. Processing costs run up to 50% lower than card networks. Merchants brand the full checkout as their own, and our team brings deep experience in the regulated industries across the US and Canada that general platforms treat as edge cases.
