Are Stripe going to expand any further into Europe in the near future? I've integrated with Stripe several times now for US-based clients and am getting severely jealous!

#32In either case, this is really awesome. What sets this apart from Stripe's competitors, is that those companies (or at least Braintree) require you to set up a different account for each currency, which is a huge pain in the ass. Or at least this was the case last time I checked.

We use the standard ISO 4217 codes ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_4217 ). But we should probably include them explicitly on that list. Willfix.

#38Earlier quoted context omitted.
Although they are convertible one for one with the Pound Sterling. It's the same with the Isle of Mans currency the Manx pound. This is because these are British dependencies or have a special relationship with the UK but at the same time are independent.
Note though that those pounds (I have a 5 Jersey Pound bill somewhere) are not legal tender in the UK [1]. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jersey_pound

#39I noticed the example uses "cny" in lower case. ISO currency codes are always uppercase. I imagine the API is case insensitive then. Which may pose a problem for the poor fellow who considers GBP the pound but GBp the pence. That is an established convention on some systems (e.g. Bloomberg, I think).

For myself, Poland. I've also had clients in Italy and the Czech Republic make similar noises (although, I must confess, I know comparatively little about their local alternatives).
