The demo of checkout available at https://stripe.com/checkout uses a canvas element for the demo animation. It's a really well done walkthrough. Was it entirely custom-coded or done using a framework / tool to help?

Re: Stripe Checkout
#82Is there a method of inserting the address if it's already known? (Such as saved customer data or another form element?)
Re: Stripe Checkout
#83Earlier quoted context omitted.
can you explain what you mean by 'with the phone number'? Just curious.
Try watching the animation (click "Show me" on the page). Basically, we use your email address and phone number to save you from having to type in your credit card number everywhere.
Is there any way to avoid that even if you don't remember the credit card?

I think the trap here, a function of scaling any business, is that what's best for most of your customers isn't necessarily best for all of your customers. Another perspective is that what's right for your 2013 customers isn't necessarily the right thing for your prospective 2014 customers. One possible outcome of your decision is that you're optimizing for customers who have repeat business and against customers wit…
For sure. We haven't seen evidence yet that there are things that are amazing for some segments and bad for others -- but if we did (or if we do in future -- we're still measuring), that'd certainly inform our approach. Also, it's probably worth emphasizing that the traditional Stripe integration options are all still present and always will be.
You could also automatically run split tests on a per-merchant basis, thereby automatically auto-tune the checkout for each merchant.

That's a neat idea.

Not yet, though this is definitely on the near-term roadmap.

Is it? I don't see any canvas. Would be interested as well...

We do not have many returning customers, and our customers are not as tech savvy as Humble Bundle customers, by a long shot. We are using Stripe.js with our own form instead. It's not as nice as Checkout, and I really wish I could use Checkout instead, but as a developer I need to be in control of my user experience, and "Remember me" is not appropriate for my application.
Well, even if they're not returning for you , they might have entered their payment details on a different site. Out of curiosity, would you be open to running a test to see if "Remember me" has any impact in either direction?
Maybe, but I'm not sure that a test could change my mind, unless it resulted in a massive boost in revenue.
Let's say that the vast majority of my customers do not want to use "Remember me", and that most of them examine the option and leave it unchecked, as is their desire. I've still introduced friction into my payment process, and possibly left a bad taste in the mouths of many of my customers. Maybe not enough that they stop doing business with me, but it could still taint my reputation in their eyes, as a company that is trying to push them down a path that they almost certainly don't want to take.
Testing may indicate an increase in revenue, but it can't account for reputational damage, unless we're going to ask every customer how they felt about the checkout process after they're done.
So, testing based on revenue alone isn't enough. There is probably plenty of testing that shows that adding an array of annoying up-sells during checkout increases revenue, but that doesn't mean it's something I want to do.

It looks like the canvas is only there to render the background gradient. Pretty sure all the animation is done via CSS3.
