Iurii Uses: #Stripe

Iurii built our entire B2B platform from scratch in a remarkably short time — a fully multilingual webshop covering 32 European markets in 28 languages, with automated VAT calculation, VIES validation, Stripe payments across 6 methods including SEPA and bank transfers, server-generated PDF invoices, and Notion as our CRM. Everything was integrated and working end-to-end, not just a prototype. As someone responsible for both sales and operations, I especially valued that he understood the business side — compliance requirements, B2B buyer expectations, different payment preferences across markets. He asked the right questions upfront, kept things transparent throughout, and delivered without dragging it out. Highly recommend.

We picked vatnode for our B2B billing flow and asked Iurii to help us integrate it properly. He wired up the validation calls in our checkout, set up the webhook for VAT status changes, and walked us through the edge cases — what to do when a customer's VAT registration is suspended mid-contract, how to handle VIES outages without blocking the order. The whole integration was production-ready in a few days. Two months in, the webhook has already flagged a customer whose VAT got suspended, which would have meant invoices we couldn't legally issue. Solid work.

We needed to switch from a legacy payment gateway to Stripe Billing without disrupting around two thousand active subscriptions. Iurii mapped out the migration in a way that didn't require any downtime, ran the cutover during a quiet window, and stayed online for the next 48 hours in case something broke. Nothing did. The level of preparation was the difference — he had a rollback plan for every step, which I don't usually see from contractors.
