You can, just not everyone has access or the ability to write server-side code. For instance if you used Wix, Squarespace, some generic website builder you often have no access to the underlying server-side code.

the ssl itself was only $10/year, the $20/month heroku charges you to use a custom ssl cert.

Commencepayments.com, costs me $40 a month to run (though if I wasn't lazy I could drop it significantly - $20 for heroku + ssl and $20 for cloudflare) launched last February and just hit the $1000 mark!

Yeah, to my recollection I can't recall a single person joining the irc room with a python code base, I can't really say why or why not, but it should be noted that it is popularity in terms of support, not in terms of api request

Failures caused by this should have returned an api_error, a card_error (like card declined) would have been returned upstream from Stripe.

Woot, a postmortem from Stripe! I've been asking for these for over a year and hopefully we'll see more from them in the future.

I've learned quite a bit from IRC (mostly in #stripe). Though the learning has been way more indirect since I spend most of my time helping others. So people would ask "how do I do X?" and the learning comes from researching

The issue with AVS is that it only matches numbers (so 123 Main Street and 123 Maple Street could both return true). The other issue is apartment numbers. If the address on file is 123 Main Street #123 but the customer puts #123 on line 2 i

They do have a user ticketing system (Uservoice), there is just no user facing view of it. When you send an email to support@stripe.com (or any of the public email addresses they put on blog posts), it goes to Uservoice. Then it gets triage

Given the recent PCI Discussion. As opposed to Stripe.js where the credit card inputs in a custom designed form live on the merchant's DOM, Braintree just set it up so that it replaces each field with an iframe (that also allows for cu

I think more awesome, was the hosted fields you just launched, so that I can have a custom, stylized form where each credit card input is its own iframe. https://www.braintreepayments.com/features/hosted-fields

Historically, the thought has been that the iframe and a redirect could both be treated as SAQ A (the easiest form of compliance), was because if you changed the iframe that was displayed or the page the customer was linked to it would be e

The new Stripe.js does not render an iframe, the credit card information is still entered on your site so $("#credit-card-number").val() would return the card number. The transmission of the card data happens through the iframe. S
