Great processor, fixed checkout.
Stripe is a superb processor, but Stripe Checkout is code-first and hard to customise. Sling gives you a drag-and-drop checkout builder on your Shopify store, with payments handled by your own connected Whop account.

The difference
A checkout you build by dragging.
Stripe Checkout is powerful but developer-first. Sling gives you a no-code drag-and-drop checkout on your Shopify store, with payments handled by your own connected Whop account.

Questions.
Is Stripe bad?+
No. Stripe is an excellent processor. Sling is not a processor; it is a checkout builder for Shopify stores that adds a no-code checkout, order sync and pixels, with payments handled by your own connected Whop account.
How is Sling different?+
Sling is checkout-builder software. It is not a bank, payment processor, money transmitter, or merchant of record, and never holds or touches your customers' funds. Payments are processed by your own Whop account under Whop's terms.
What does it cost?+
$99/mo plus a flat 0.5% per order. These are software fees billed by Sling to the merchant, on top of your own Whop account's card processing.
