No Good
by superlativeevts·1 week ago·1 reply
Just stopped working.
Rolled back to prior to when it stopped working, still not working.
Lost a few thousand dollars in sales. Tried everything through Stripe to get it up and running again. It worked when logged in as an admin, outside folks couldn’t see any payment options. Guest checkout was enabled. Payment links just showup wherever they feel like putting them randomly.
Switched over to Payment Plugins which is free and uses Stripe. That fixed every problem I had, was cleaner, and it gave me more options. That’s the route to go. They just can’t keep up with this plugin.

Fast helpful support. Thank you.
Simply not good enough
by J·3 weeks ago·3 replies
The ability to quickly connect the plugin to a Stripe account is a big step forward (no more messing around with endpoints, hooks and manually coping and pasting code back and forth).
Being able to quickly turn on a broad range of payment options is also useful (card, Klarna, Apple and G Pay etc).
However, it us utterly unacceptable that a major payment gateway like Stripe is publishing software that doesn’t meet basic web standards for accessibility—particularly those relating to the visually impaired. When adding card details during the checkout the user has to type using mid-grey text on a light-grey background—how are the visually impaired supposed to see this???
Also, the ability to style the payment section so it matches the website brand palette is nigh on impossible. Why would Stripe make the styling of fonts, colours and background elements so needlessly difficult?!
So many basic problems.
