Stripe is a dominant force in the payment space and offers deep integration with Bubble through a dedicated plugin. It seamlessly syncs your Bubble app's versions with your Stripe test and live accounts. Plus, Bubble adds useful fields like Stripe ID and subscription endpoints to enhance integration.

Lemon Squeezy, on the other hand, builds on top of Stripe and offers a simpler, more user-friendly dashboard. It provides similar functionalities like checkouts and webhooks, making it easy to handle transactions and update your Bubble database. Additionally, Lemon Squeezy offers extra features like email marketing and built-in affiliate management, which can be helpful in early MVP stages.

When it comes to pricing, Lemon Squeezy may have higher transaction fees due to its surcharge on top of Stripe's fees. However, it offers added value with its integrated email marketing and affiliate capabilities. Furthermore, Lemon Squeezy simplifies tax handling compared to Stripe, making it more convenient for some users.

Keep in mind that both platforms have restrictions on illegal products and services, so ensure your offerings comply with their terms and conditions.

Ultimately, the choice between Stripe and Lemon Squeezy depends on your specific needs and preferences. Consider factors like transaction fees, ease of integration, and additional features to make the best decision for your Bubble.io app.
