# What are the differences between Stripe, Mollie, and Paypal?

There are three notable differences between Stripe, Mollie, and Paypal:

###### 1. Transaction fees

Mollie is the cheapest, followed by Stripe and then Paypal.

Example on an amount of €500: Mollie will take €6.2, Stripe €7.75, and Paypal €17.25.

###### 2. Ease of payment for the customer

For Stripe and Mollie, an online payment box appears at the top of the invoice on the client interface. The client enters their card numbers as on any website and pays.

For Paypal, the client needs to have an account and log in.

Mollie offers, in addition to credit cards, other payment methods such as Bancontact, Sofort, Ideal, etc.
