I like lemonsqueezy as an alternative. It’s easy to set up and also handles taxes for you https://www.lemonsqueezy.com/

Usually, every country has a group of local “payment-gateway” services/vendors.

They are similar to stripe but local. They should have support for credit card payments and additionally local/regional payment systems(e.g. alipay, upay or other kinds native to your country).

The correct answer is as many as you can reasonably afford to use.

That will probably include PayPal and stripe, managed correctly and handled like they’ll dump you instantly for no reason.

And whatever your customers want to use, too. Falling back to mailed checks in some cases.

CASH and have a cash atm machine at your business too Lots of places here do that

Cash. No credit, no checks, no waiting. Pay your employees immediately, pay invoices on time, and keep the profits to spend on dinner tonight.
