#4I don't know a lot about Stripe, but I have been using Paypal to accept payments for work (I'm a web developer) from the US (I live in Ireland). Would Stripe be a viable alternative to this approach (I'm not fully comfortable with Paypal)? Stripe seems to be aimed moreso at transaction based payments (shops etc.)

#5Can we stop with the stripe adverts please? It's getting irritating. I'll have to start posting links to Paypal and Sagepay each day to balance it out.

You created an account just to post that? Really.
I can understand that american citizens might be annoyed, but for people like me, who lives in Europe, it's nice to keep track of their progress.

I'm an EU citizen and it seems a bit annoying to me, too. Clearly I'm in the minority (the upvotes are against me), but if I wanted to keep track of their progress I could just as well follow their blog or Twitter.

I don't like companies abusing sites like Hacker News and posting links to their products. It's a form of spam.
There's nothing remotely interesting in Stripe for a hacker, just another scummy payment processor.

Go ahead and post those links. If the links are interesting and important for developers then they will get upvotes.
As a developer in Norway I am very much delighted to see Stripe roll out in Europe and hope to see more Stripe links here on Hacker News!

#10Definitely welcome. Operating from Belfast, the intersection of a kind of Ireland/Britain venn diagram, options for accepting payments have been seriously limited for us. We've been using Fastspring so far and it has been great for abstracting away problems like when to charge VAT, PCI compliance, multi-currency charges etc. It got us up and running. But we're paying 9% on credit card transactions and directing people away from our app to make payments and that's not good.
Luckily we got on the Stripe beta early. They've addressed multi-currency payments well. Our use case demands quite a bit of (re)development so it's not in yet. We're literally (figuratively :) chomping at the bit to get it installed though.
