# Bond vs Whop

Bond is a Whop alternative for selling Discord roles through your own Stripe account, with no fee from Bond on top of Stripe's. Install the Paid roles plugin and paste a restricted Stripe key on Bond's dashboard, then ask for each tier in Discord. Whop runs its own payments at 2.7% + $0.30 per successful domestic card transaction, plus 1.5% for international cards, per docs.whop.com/fees on 15 November 2026.

We build Bond. Everything below about Whop comes from its own public pages.

## What Whop is known for

Checkout links for one-time and subscription payments, on its own payments and payouts. Members buy through Whop's own checkout.

## What Bond does differently

With Bond the sale happens in your own Stripe account, Stripe pays you out, and you pay Stripe's own fee: 2.9% + 30¢ per successful domestic card transaction in the United States, per stripe.com/pricing on 15 November 2026, and on a subscription 0.7% more for Stripe Billing, per stripe.com/billing/pricing the same day. That is more than Whop's published card rate, so on payment fees alone Bond is not the cheaper choice. What you get is no second company between you and your money, and a bot that also builds and runs the rest of the server.

## One sentence per tier, once Stripe is connected.

"@Bond Sell a VIP role for $5 a month"

## And if you do switch, in three moves.

Members already paying through Whop keep paying there until they cancel. Bond does not move anyone's subscription, so the two run side by side for a while.

### 1. Connect Stripe to Bond

Install the Paid roles plugin and paste a restricted Stripe key on Bond's dashboard. Whop keeps selling exactly as it does today.

### 2. Sell new members through Bond

Ask Bond for each tier and try it in test mode first. New buyers pay on Stripe's page through Bond's panel; nobody already paying is moved.

### 3. Stop new sales in Whop

Its existing subscribers keep paying it until they cancel. Turn it off once the last of them has gone, or keep both.

## When to stay on Whop.

Stick with Whop if you want Whop to collect and remit tax for you, at 2% of each transaction, or payouts by crypto, Venmo or wire, as docs.whop.com/fees listed them on 15 November 2026.

It is good at checkout links for one-time and subscription payments, on its own payments and payouts, and there is no prize for switching a tool you are happy with. Add Bond for the jobs Whop does not cover, and leave the rest where it is.
