Where do you live? Our roadmap—literally—is quickly expanding to many more countries (we just launched in 8 new countries last week). And this new funding round will be put to use for that. :)

Hrm, I've seen most who migrate spend a similiar time to your estimate. I know you've already migrated, but I'm really sorry it took that long, and I'd really like to hear where we can improve the docs. Would you mind em

Most of those categories are from financial institutions or card networks. Stripe has been working with them so we can support more businesses, and I know of quite a few networking equipment businesses that run on Stripe today. If you'

Ha! Glad you were able to find a way. We still think it could be easier, even with Atlas and Australia support now. Would you be up to chat more? edwin@stripe.com

The rates themselves show on your receipts? Are you using some sort of plug-in? Could you forward me a receipt at edwin@stripe.com? For the conversion itself, we automatically convert from whatever currency you've accepted the payment

Email sent! I'm pretty nostalgic, so I do miss the old Charges API sometimes. But Charges assumed payments were binary—and we all know they're most definitley not. This also doesn't help with the new SCA regulations that star

We do want to optimize for those simple needs. Which parts do you think are bloated? Would love to hear how we can de-bloat. (Feel free to email me at edwin@stripe.com too.)
