The problem
Foreign Stripe accounts trigger 3DS challenges on US cards. Authorization rates fall 8-12%. Customers think you're broken.
Our solution
We migrate you to a US-domiciled Stripe account, route US cards through US acquirers, and tune Radar rules to reduce false declines.
Acquirer geography moves auth rates
US-issued cards process more cleanly through US acquirers. The lift is usually 4-8 points.
3DS hurts more than it helps in the US
Unlike SCA-mandated EU, US 3DS challenges drop conversion. Use it only on high-risk transactions.
Network tokens are free conversion
Visa and Mastercard network tokens reduce false declines by 1-3% with no UX change.
