The better question would be "why wouldn't you ditch paypal for stripe?" Stripe is much easier to integrate than the x.com/paypal.com family of conflicting api's, all of which lack easy to read documentation. https://cms.paypal.com/us/cg

Is it just me or is this page completely useless on iPhone safari? It could just be me, but I don't seem to be able to scroll or zoom, while the rest of safari works just fine (not frozen). If it's not just seems, they really need to fix th

You may be right, but maybe a web based solution is an answer for those who aren't qualified or ready to create such a firm. If not, the lease we can do is provide a step up from the elance/odesk type boards that exist now.
