Users don't like social login

Tangentially related, for similar reasons Paypal remains my payment processor. Lots of people have Paypal accounts and find it much more convenient to use it rather than haul out their credit card and hand key all of their address and payment info. Every time I think about switching I review how many people use PayPal Express checkout rather than credit card DirectPay (both of which I offer), and I think about how many people simply wouldn't pay if the minimal friction of the PayPal Express button wasn't there on my checkout form.

Lowest friction wins.

Totally agree! Because I am not the biggest fan of PayPal, one of the best things I did to speed up ecommerce for myself was to memorize my CC details.

I have recently been converted to the joy of filling in credit card details (and address and phone number and...) with LastPass' form fill function. I previously had my CC details memorized for similar reasons, but I didn't realize just how much time I was wasting typing this stuff in over and over until it was magically done for me. And since security is what LastPass does, I have no problem with having their extension save my CC info in a secure manner.

I am an avid LastPass user and I already have my CC details in LastPass. But, until now I didn't realize you can add them to the Form Fill details! Thank you tempestn!
