Accepting payments with Stripe in APEX, Part 1
I've just been investigating a payment gateway for an APEX application. I already knew about the recent startup Stripe, and their fees seemed just as good (if not better) than the other well-known contenders - I figured there would be a good place to start. Now, I haven't actually worked with the others, but so far, I'm very impressed with the system/API available.
