FAQ says Stripe payment links. I don't think that is phone billing.

> We use Stripe payment links to collect payments for postcards. In doing so, we are unable to see any sensitive information about your payment methods.

That’s good. Though phone numbers are so opaque. How can I be sure that’s actually where it’s going? How do I know if it’ll cost me an MMS fee? Etc.

Why not just an upload form with a checkout for paypal/credit card/etc.?
