Stripe has transformed the world. In 1999, I was asked to look into how to setup credit card processing for our company. I contacted Authorize.net for technical help. They just asked me to fax some information to them. Two months later my boss receives a bill for $3,000 claiming we had signed a contract agreeing to that fee. I think Stripe has made CC processing a lot easier for everyone.
- mgkimsal 10y agolot of time passed between 199 and stripe. a little thing called paypal had a pretty huge impact on opening up credit card payments for folks too.

- wott 10y agoAh. OK. Transformed the world, no less. I don't even know what it is.
- rgbrenner 10y agoI setup credit card processing with authorize.net in 2003. Used authorize.net's API docs. Didn't have any significant problems. I like(d) their API less than Stripe's.. but I wouldn't pay a premium for Stripe just for that. Interesting how much difference 4 years makes.
