Which, to me, are not-insubstantial barriers. Pin might not be as competitive on price (barring the $9/m intro offer), but just being able to supply a regular account to handle their deposits is convenient.
On a somewhat related note, I'm currently forking Drone.io's go.stripe library[1] for Pin Payments, given the extreme similarity of the Stripe & Pin API's. If anyone is keen on helping, get in touch or send me a pull request: https://github.com/elithrar/go.pin https://github.com/elithrar/go.pin

- lbarrow 13y agoThat library looks cool! I wrote a Go client library for Braintree the other day if you want to take a look. https://github.com/lionelbarrow/braintree-go https://github.com/lionelbarrow/braintree-go
