Why RoxPay Surpasses Stripe in Italy

01

Native E-Invoicing

With Stripe you have to integrate external software for SDI invoicing. RoxPay automatically generates and sends every invoice to the Revenue Agency, zero plugins, zero delays.

02

IC++ vs Opaque Flat Rates

Stripe applies 1.5% on every European transaction. RoxPay separates interchange from markup: you pay exactly what it costs, from 0.45%.

03

Dedicated Local Support

With Stripe, your only option is to open tickets in English. RoxPay offers a dedicated account manager who speaks your language and knows the local market.

04

Cross-Merchant User Recognition

RoxPay identifies users via Tax Code across the merchant network, improving conversion rates. Stripe relies on cookies, with all their privacy and precision limits.
