Ask HN: Which payment provider do you use?

  • I use Stripe exclusively. The integration into Rails isn't too bad (I wrote a book[1] about it and a gem[2] that automates a lot of it) but there are a lot of little details that one might not think of if they've never done a payment integration before.

    Recurly][3] abstracts over multiple payment gateways for subscriptions, if that's something you need to do. I haven't used it myself but I've heard good things.

    Are you looking for a single integration that handles both PayPal and credit card transactions? Stripe users typically end up integrating both separately (though building a billing abstraction above both).
