Overview
Finstack is for startups, SMEs, large corporation or sole traders looking to take payments directly from the bank account of customers in the Eurozone.
It's particularly suited for B2B (business-to-business) and recurring payments.
Our easy-to-use dashboard and powerful API make Finstack a powerful solution for any business size.
Finstack is great for many use cases. However, there are some limitations with our service. We aren't able to:
Let you take credit card payments - however you can use another payment provider alongside Finstack.
Let you accept instant payments - Direct Debit payments take 3-5 working days to clear, so they're not ideal for goods that need to be shipped quickly.
Yes. Finstack can process payments under the Core Scheme (B2C and B2B transactions) and the B2B scheme (exclusively for transactions between companies, provided that a specific mandate has been signed and duly transmitted to its bank by the paying company).

There are no limits on how many transactions you can take with Finstack.
The minimum amount for a single transaction is 1€ and the maximum amount is 10,000€. We may be able to increase this limit with additional verification checks.
The funds collected are paid directly into your bank account every week.
Finstack fees are deducted automatically, and you will receive an invoice with a detailed description of your fees and transactions every month.
We hold a % of your funds in reserve for 8 weeks in order to cover the chargeback risks. This % is calculated by multiplying your average chargeback rate by 2 (minimum Rolling Reserve rate during the 8 first weeks working with Finstack: 5%).
For instance, if you have an average chargeback rate of 2%, your rolling reserve rate will be 4%.
This means that every week, we will make a payout on your bank account of 96% of the transactions you made the previous week, plus 4% of the transactions you made 8 weeks ago, minus the chargebacks occured.
