New experience with Stape
In March 2026, we switched to Stape (well… just because 🙂). The fees at RRR-bank had become huge — they charged €200 for a transfer.
Our company’s accountant registered, and my colleague and I received invitations. The fee matches what was previously stated in the correspondence.
There were only two issues I personally encountered, and specifically with NNN-bank (my colleague using YYY-Bank didn’t have these problems):
The contract number was listed as XXXX, but the invoice said “Invoice to contract CN-XXXX,” and the currency control flagged this inconsistency.
The currency control did not consider the invoice sufficient and requested an additional bill/document.
In the end, Stape updated my contract by adding the “CN” prefix and advised me to request additional billing documents through accounting if currency control asks again.
Overall, everything is working well so far — thank you very much for the service!

Stape works well
Stape works well. It lets me receive payroll quickly and download invoices with one click. Support is excellent, and wire transfers and crypto payments are reliable.
There are a few minor UX issues: you can’t tell if card payments are available in your country before initiating a withdrawal, and contracts can’t be customized without help from support.
Overall, Stape fulfills its core purpose effectively, though it’s not perfect - I can’t pretend it’s flawless, but I’ll still recommend it.

Working with the Stape since December…
Working with the Stape since December 2025. The experience wasn’t bug free, but nothing way too critical. The worst problem was a delay of the withdrawal transfer, due to the malfunction of automatic script failure to fill proper intermediary bank, but the transfer finally made it’s way to me once resent properly. The culprit was on Stape side, never got an apology. Support is pretty responsive, yet not 24/7 available (maybe that’ll happen as they grow). The communication culture is way too unofficial and Slavic-style. I am Slavic myself, while it’s not a big deal for me, it might sound too rude to customers who got used to western type of support communication language: apologies when problems happened, detailed explanations, proactive solutions - that’s what I haven’t experienced yet with Stape. Overall, it’s an ok service, which works, but still goes through the growth pains. A considerable trade off for ease of use/quality/availability/costs at this moment when it comes to international work for hire operations.

I’m sharing my experience as an employee whose company relies on this platform to send salary payments in foreign currency. So far, everything has been very reliable — the transfers show up in my account within minutes, and I’ve never encountered any surprise charges or hidden fees. The service also provides all the required documentation, which makes it easy to handle tax reporting or any official inquiries. Overall, it’s been a smooth and transparent way to receive payments.

We pay multiple freelancers every month, and Stape simplified that workflow for us. Everything is in one place, and payouts are consistent. Support helped us quickly when we had a timing question.
Incompetent
Incompetent, irresponsible actions when dealing with salary transfers. Poor grammar of agents indicates low standards. Never ever trust this company with you finances.

Good service and easy to use
Great service, easy to use, user-friendly platform, and excellent support team. We look forward to continuing with Stape.
Stape is always clear and helpful
We’ve been working with this company for a while now, and it’s been a really smooth experience. The Stape help businesses around the world accept payments from clients, and they do it in a way that’s fast, flexible, and reliable.
One thing that stands out is how quickly they respond to any questions or issues. The Stape support is incredibly fast, almost instant, and they’re always clear and helpful. Payments are credited right away, and there are multiple ways to receive funds depending on what works best for your setup. They’re also great at adapting to different types of deals and business models, which makes things easier whether you’re just starting out or running a large operation.
They seem to work with just about every kind of business out there, from freelancers to big companies, and they treat everyone with the same level of care. I also really appreciate how they handle local regulations. In each country, they provide all the necessary documents like invoices and service confirmations, fully aligned with local laws. That kind of support is rare, especially when compliance can be so complicated these days.
Overall, they’re genuinely focused on making things easier for their clients. I hope Stape keep growing and adding even more useful features. They’re already doing a great job, and I’m looking forward to seeing what they come up with next.

Great service and experience
I do like the experience Stape provides:
- Fast wire transfers (takes just a few hours in my location).
- Good currency exchange rate.
- Responsive and helpful customer support solved my issues quickly.
All-in-all, it 5 out of 5, good work!
Definitely recommend
Already the second month receiving the payments via following platform, so I decided to leave a review.
Used Solar and Deel previously, but lately they were not able to resolve my case and those guys did! Add on top user-friendly interface and fast payouts. So if you're looking for a payroll service for international payments, it's worth paying attention to this project.
