Hi there,
Thanks for sharing your feedback!
Link is a fast, secure checkout option powered by Stripe that allows customers to save and reuse their payment details for a quicker checkout experience. However, I understand that the way it appears on the checkout page might cause confusion for your customers.
Regarding Link being enabled by default, Stripe aims to provide a seamless checkout experience, but I understand your concern. If you’d prefer to disable Link, you can do so by navigating to:
WooCommerce → Settings → Payments → Stripe → Payment Methods, then scroll down to Express Checkout and uncheck the option for Link.
I hope this helps.
