Stripe can change its fees or its legal terms with just 30 days' notice, sent to your email on file. If you keep using Stripe after those 30 days, you've automatically agreed to the new terms — even if you didn't read them.
This analysis describes what Stripe's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology
This clause establishes the procedural mechanism by which Stripe retains authority to alter contractual obligations and pricing structures during the agreement's term, requiring users to affirmatively terminate the agreement if they do not accept proposed modifications within the notice period.
Stripe's 30-day notice period for fee and term changes is shorter than what some consumer protection frameworks require, and the automatic acceptance-by-continued-use mechanism means merchants may accept materially worse terms without affirmative consent. Merchants should monitor Stripe's email notices carefully and set up alerts for any SSA update communications.
How other platforms handle this
We will notify you before we make material changes to these Terms and give you an opportunity to review the revised Terms before continuing to use the Fitbit Service. When you use the Fitbit Service after a modification becomes effective, you are telling us that you accept the modified Terms.
We may (and probably will) create updated versions of these Terms in the future, as the Riot Services and applicable laws and regulations evolve. When we do, we'll inform you of the new Terms which will supersede and replace these Terms in writing (e-mail is sufficient).
We reserve the right to change these Terms on a going-forward basis at any time upon 7 days' notice. Please check these Terms periodically for changes. If a change to these Terms materially modifies your rights or obligations, we may require that you accept the modified Terms in order to continue to...

"Stripe may modify these terms or the fees for the Services at any time by providing 30 days' notice to you. Your continued use of the Services after the effective date of a modification constitutes your acceptance of the modified terms. If you do not agree to the modified terms, you may terminate this Agreement before the effective date of the modification.— Excerpt from Stripe's Stripe Terms of Service
REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Modification-by-notice clauses in payment processing agreements are reviewed under contract law unconscionability doctrines and state UDAP statutes. In the EU, PSD2 Article 54 requires payment institutions to propose changes to framework contract terms at least two months in advance, making a 30-day notice period potentially non-compliant for EU/EEA merchants. UK PSR 2017 Regulation 45 imposes the same two-month notice requirement. California Consumer Legal Remedies Act (Cal. Civ. Code § 1770) prohibits certain forms of deemed acceptance of contract terms.
