Stripe is pretty cool. We've been using it on http://www.IslamicEventFinder.com http://www.IslamicEventFinder.com and was the best library experience to integrate. A few things we noticed, the CVC check is not as impressive, it charges the card even if the CVC is not correct, at least we've seen in a few instances. Other than that it looks solid. Would prefer some sort of a seal or something on the popup to indicate that their payments are safe, a few clients asked. At least an option to customize displaying that seal would be great and also may be the type of credit cards Stripe accepts. Is this Checkout thing same as Stripe.js? I didn't get a chance to checkout (lol) this fully yet!

> it charges the card even if the CVC is not correct Some users want that behavior. But we're rolling out tools that give you the option to decline charges if the CVC fails.

  Why would any user accept cards with invalid info? That's just asking for chargebacks.

    Because the assumption is it's a valid charge but the user simply mistyped their CVC (or don't understand what that number is and put in the wrong thing entirely). If these purchases are rejected, the user may never complete the sale.

  I was a bit shocked to see this behavior at first and spent some time debugging it thinking it could be an issue on my side. It turned out not. It's no big deal but could bring doubts on consumer's mind if they intentionally type wrong CVC (I used to do that before on other websites!). Glad to hear that Stripe is on it and can't wait for that tool to show up. Can you please also answer a few of my other questions including the reliability seal thing? I'm sure that would be a simple change from your side and the developers may not even have to do a thing.
