Why Net Revenue matters for Stripe users
Gross volume can be misleading if fees, refunds, and disputes consume a significant portion. Net revenue shows the true economic value of your payment operations.
Stripe users can analyse the gap between gross and net revenue to identify areas for optimisation, whether through fee negotiation, refund reduction, or chargeback prevention.
