Stripe in Ireland

Re:Stripe in Ireland by pastylegs on Tuesday September 03, 2013 @05:07AM (#6319863)

I don't know a lot about Stripe, but I have been using Paypal to accept payments for work (I'm a web developer) from the US (I live in Ireland). Would Stripe be a viable alternative to this approach (I'm not fully comfortable with Paypal)? Stripe seems to be aimed moreso at transaction based payments (shops etc.)

Stripe could work for this. There's Stripe integration with Xero, for example, which makes it trivial to issue an invoice and have a "Pay with Stripe" button show up on the Xero web page for that invoice.

Take a look at TransferWise, it's being used for that at some companies: http://transferwise.com/

Disclaimer: I'm not part of TransferWise, I just really like the idea.
