Stripe — free tier with API key
Stripe exposes a free-tier JSON API. Register for an API key if required; we verified a public or demo endpoint.
We probe a documented GET and expect 2xx JSON — full uptime and health score. Open provider docs ↗
On our probe schedule. Uptime charts appear after the first check lands.

Stripe: common questions
Is Stripe free to use?
Yes — Stripe is a free finance API. Free tier: Free tier — API key required. Whether the free tier allows commercial use is unclear — check the provider docs.
Does Stripe need an API key?
Yes — Stripe needs a free API key, which you pass on each request. Rate limits: Unpublished.
Can I call Stripe from the browser?
Not directly — Stripe doesn't send browser-friendly CORS headers, so call it from a server or proxy instead. Copy the curl or Python snippet on this page to get started.
Is Stripe up right now?
Stripe is catalogued but not yet on our probe schedule, so we don't publish a live status for it. Check the provider's own status page or docs for its current state.
