Stripe are introducing some new pricing for their fraud protection product Radar. Most clients are going to be placed on their standard plan from 22 January 2027. This means you will be charged a fee for any fraud detected payment that is screened. This is a charge per transaction.

We are recommending clients to login to Stripe and review their plan and make a decision.

1. Stay on the standard plan and possibility start incurring charges
2. Downgrade to the FREE lite plan

If we have access to your account we can make this change for you, just let us know what you would like to do.

Below is the communication that we have received from Stripe:

New Stripe Radar plans and pricing

As fraud on the internet has accelerated over the past few years, we've been rapidly adding to Radar, our fraud prevention product. Last year, we blocked $110B in fraud and shipped dozens of new features. With so much new functionality, we're introducing four tiers—Lite, Standard, Plus, and Pro—and updating pricing.

What this means for you

The version of Radar you've been using is closest to Standard, and you've been receiving it for free. Starting today, you'll receive a free trial of Radar Standard, which now includes broad protection across all payment methods, along with fraud analytics. After the trial ends on January 22, 2027, you'll automatically continue on Radar Standard and be charged NZ$0.09 per screened transaction.

If you prefer to continue receiving fraud protection for free, you can switch to Radar Lite in one click at any time from the Dashboard. Radar Lite provides essential fraud protection for card payments, powered by Stripe's industry-leading AI models trained on more than $1.9T in annual payment volume. Radar Lite will be included at no additional cost with your payment processing.

In the AI era, we expect new fraud patterns to emerge quickly. To stay ahead, you can upgrade to Radar Plus or Pro for advanced features like custom rules, Adaptive 3D Secure, protection against emerging fraud patterns like free trial abuse, and more. As fraud evolves, so will Radar—we're excited to keep improving to protect your business.
