You mean, thousands of sites across the United States.
The day one of these great payment processing services begins offering worldwide coverage will be the day that we finally get rid of PayPal.
I am thoroughly sick of PayPal but there is absolutely no other alternative.
I think what's most frustrating is that most US companies don't even seem to realise what a giant, gaping opportunity they're missing.
"Oh yeah, we sell/ship/work absolutely everywhere! All 50 states!" Gah.
I would appreciate more updates though from Stripe about the progress of entering the Australian market.
For all I know, they haven't even started talking to anyone yet, but knowing some progress information would be appreciated, instead of them saying they won't talk about it.
Pin is attempting to do this in the Australian market http://pin.net.au/ -- but they are early days and it's a closed beta... Even so, I wish them good luck & rapid progress.
I'll take anything that can hold a candle to stripe and works in europe.
My one desire for Stripe is more recurring subscription features, like notifying users of expired cards, sending invoices, receipts, etc. Initially I did that by hand but we've since paired it with Spreedly (http://spreedly.com/) which does all of that and it's a nice combo.
We did an implementation of this for StartupThreads and it has worked fairly well so far.
After countless headaches with PayPal, we switched to Stripe in 1 working day. Huge fan of their service, great API design and documentation. Keep it up, gents!
"Emergency Alerts
One touch of a button can alert your friends and family to your whereabouts via text, email, phone call, and even Facebook."
I'd love to implement Stripe on my website but very worried that this could lead to fraudulent charges.
We honestly could not have launched so soon without Stripe. We spent over a month haggling with Authorize.net and immediately jumped ship to Stripe as soon as it was available.
It makes accepting payments (and subscriptions!) so easy.
This is an amazing company, making amazing progress in a field that deeply affects all web companies, from start-ups to multi-nationals.
It's a joy to watch them succeed.

The guys at Techzing interviewed the Co-Founder of Stripe a few months ago... http://techzinglive.com/page/939/168-tz-interview-patrick-co...
Stripe is far and away the easiest to use processor out there.
