Honestly, it sounds like the OP is doing a great job at sales, and he's just making money as an underpaid affiliate.

The key is that he's not even an affiliate. His cut is coming from his customer, not from Stripe (he charges 1% on top of what Stripe charges the user). Therefore Stripe doesn't have a financial reason to build this app, they already collect the same fees from these users.
