Could you use an ACH solution? I guess consumers may not be familiar with it, but stripe ACH looked customer friendly. I think they charge 0.8%.

What exactly is an ACH solution? Is it this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automated_Clearing_House Seems like it's US only, unfortunately we're Canada only. This sounds really cool though, thanks for the find!

Edit: For anyone else, I assume this is what you're talking about https://support.stripe.com/questions/accepting-ach-payments-...

You can do ACH transactions from Canadian bank accounts. I know Forte supports it. (Though the actual routing is not exactly "ACH".) Interac Online might be more popular though (that is a very different payment process, and requires actual logging into your bank, last I looked.)

Yeah, didn't know it wasn't supported in canada. That's it though!
