Slerp Pay

What is Slerp Pay?

Your Slerp order payments will continue to be processed by Stripe, but we have developed Slerp Pay to help you increase margins and reduce card processing costs. 

As of 10 April 2023, Stripe will increase its fees for card processing and disputes across the board, due to increases in bank network costs and other underlying service costs. For other information on Stripe fees for standard Stripe accounts, please visit the help page here

Thanks to the volume of transactions Slerp provides to Stripe, we have been able to negotiate a preferential transaction rate. 

For the majority of cards such as UK Standard Cards, the rate via Slerp Pay is 1.3% + 20p, while the standard stripe account rate is 1.5% + 20p, a saving of over 13%.

This means you have the opportunity to actually save money via Slerp Pay, rather than absorb all the Stripe price increases.

To set up Slerp Pay, you will need: 

  • (1) The email address and (2) the password you initially set to create your Stripe account via https://dashboard.stripe.com/register
    • If you have forgotten your Stripe password, you can reset it here .
  • (3) Access to the phone number used to complete the registration on Stripe to complete two-factor authentication if applicable.

  • What happens if a customer initiates a payment dispute?

A dispute (also called a chargeback) occurs when a customer (cardholder) disputes the payment with the card company.

To process a chargeback, the card issuer creates a formal dispute on the card network, which reverses the payment immediately, taking the money for the payment (and one or more network dispute fees) from Stripe. 

Next, Stripe charges the disputed payment amount and a £15 dispute fee. This fee will be collected by Slerp via the registered card in your Slerp account. For more info on how to update your registered credit card, please visit the help page regarding the Payment Methods here.
