What Changes for Your Business When You Leave Stripe
Automatic e-invoicing to SDI, transparent IC++ fees from 0.35%, and a local contact who actually answers: everything Stripe still doesn't offer the Italian market.
0,45% 
1,5% Four Reasons to Leave Stripe
Native E-Invoicing
Stripe doesn't talk to SDI: you need an external plugin or software just to invoice. Daevon sends every invoice to the Revenue Agency automatically, with no extra integration.
IC++ vs Opaque Flat Rates
On every European transaction Stripe keeps a flat 1.5%. Daevon splits interchange from its own markup: the real cost starts at 0.35%, with no hidden margin.
Dedicated Local Support
For a Stripe issue, you open a ticket and write in English. With Daevon you get a dedicated account manager, in your language, who knows the rules of the local market.
Cross-Merchant User Recognition
The cookies Stripe relies on have well-known privacy and accuracy limits. Daevon recognizes the same user across merchants via tax code, lifting conversion rates.

Network Tokenization
Visa and Mastercard tokenize card data directly at the network level, cutting fraud by 26%.
