On: Stripe 2.9% vs. Adyen 0.6% vs. Braintree 2.59%: 2026 Fees

Let's set aside how this statement does or does not make sense in a competitive environment. Look at this from a different angle: at the end of the day, would you rather have those hundreds/thousands of dollars, or not?

Because if I could "pass the fee to customer", I might as well (raise prices), and then still pocket the hundreds/thousands of dollars.

You can't really directly pass the fee anyway because you don't know upfront if they're gonna use a domestic or international card.
