Nice, Checkout is great for Ad-hoc payment. I'm using WordPress Easy Digital Download plugin that already has Stripe support. EDD automatically creates user account, and tracks usages, and sends confirmation and download emails to buyers.

What if you could request a semver range for the checkout js file? That way vendors could opt in to fixes, enhancements or major changes and be confident in the level of volatility in UX for their customers.
Yes, this could be the right approach -- we should perhaps have something like HEAD and STABLE.

#143How about taking a photo of the credit card and using OCR to fill up the form?
Re: Stripe Checkout
#144Looking back at my sales, too many customers use Paypal to simply go to Stripe only.
I wish someone would make something that is as easy to use as Stripe but also offers Paypal. The few I've seen are still everything and the kitchen sink, not just a simple stripe + paypal combo.

[Tl;dr on the below: the changes we make to Checkout are designed to increase our merchants' revenue. If a change doesn't do that, it will be reverted.] The confusion point you cite was our biggest concern in building the "Remember me" functionality. On the one hand, it's clearly good for our merchants* if customers don't have to constantly retype their card details. On the other hand, it'd be bad if we were scaring…
I think this is an excellent, well thought-out reply. It still doesn't matter if Remember Me is better for merchants or not. What matters is whether the merchant wants to be able to hide that feature or not. If they choose to shoot themselves in the foot, it should be their choice. There are only a few actually plausible reasons why a service would prevent turning this feature off. A nanny mentality (we know what's b…
If they want to shoot themselves in the foot, can't they just make their own payment form while still using Stripe as the processor? That would allow practically any customization of the form that they want.

That's a neat idea.
If recurring vs not is important to how Remember Me is perceived, and you've been a/b testing it, you could probably test this particular hypothesis easily.
Probably want the business's prior permission first before testing their revenue funnel - and not just sitting comfortable with a "things will be evolving and changes might happen" as acceptable.

#147From your video, I noticed that on a smart phone, you authenticate user by sending a code through text. Isn't that redundant? Whoever has that phone will get that text..
That's exactly the goal. Only the registered phone can be used for purchases using your saved CC data.

#148Is there a Stripe plugin for this for Woocommerce themes?

Whatever API they are using the get the phone number without the user entering it on mobile is probably easy to spoof. It may not even work on all platforms and the user may have to type a phone number in that case. Would you trust a phone number handed to you by a PhoneGap JavaScript method, for example? It would be pretty easy to tweak to return whatever is needed.
The mobile number is entered by the user on his first purchase, not retrieved from the device itself. I don't think any device exposes phone numbers to browser APIs at all.

The canvas element is only used on Chrome as it has a hard time rendering animations above a big CSS radial-gradient. The whole animation is just using DOM elements, CSS transitions/animations and requestAnimationFrame. And yes, entirely handmade :)
If the code is modular enough, would you mind open sourcing it (or blogging about how you developed it)?
honestly, they should opensource the checkout.js code, not just the demo
