Direct debit is just as easy. Two numbers to enter.
The problem is that you can't synchronously process the payment, which makes the API (and user experience generally) much more complicated.
According to the linked site they seem to be in Beta also in France, Belgium and Netherlands. I think I lost those announces in the past weeks. Congrats!
Fun to see stripe in europe, however in europe almost nobody pays by card, or let alone: even owns a credit card. We pay by baking systems such as Ideal (in the netherlands).
