Stripe for non-developers

The much anticipated payment service Stripe was opened to public last week. Compared to other payment services, accepting credit card payments with Stripe is unbelievably easy.

You don’t have to worry about setting up Metchant Accounts, unexpected charges (they only charge you 2.9% + 30 cents per successful charge) or data portability. Stripe will take care of everything for you and transfer money to your bank account at the end of the day.

Until now, Stripe was mainly popular among developers; since it required some programming skills to get up and running. But starting today, anyone using CurdBee can start accepting credit card payments for their invoices via Stripe. All you need is to enable the Stripe module and provide the Stripe’s publishable and secret keys. Now who says running an online business is difficult?

Stripe module for CurdBee is available free for BIG users. Others can enable it for just $2 per month. For a step-by-step guide on enabling the Stripe module, read this support article.

Please note Stripe is currently available only in US; but they are promising to expand to other regions soon.
