I really hate when I see "Payments by Stripe" yet I have to type in my CC details. Stripe has them already, many times over.
Also, I don't necessarily see Stripe as more secure. I see Stripe as the same as handing my CC details to the one-off site. Because, while my info is in their DOM, their JS can do whatever it wants with it. It should just send it off to Stripe and get the callback. But how do I know that? For that reason, I do feel more secure when I get redirected off to a paypal.com site. I know Stripe offers this, but I never see it implemented that way. I always see the use of Stripe.js which allows my info to be in their page/DOM.
