Who uses Stripe for payments? Beware, they seem to not validate cards.

Braintree Australia requires a business bank account.


We switched from WorldPay ($20/mo) to Stripe. It's obvious Stripe doesn't have any fraud protection, as there's been quite a few obvious cases where the card was stolen (living in Panama, card in New Zealand type of thing). 
The only problem though, I don't think there's any real alternative to Stripe when it comes to ease of use.

I think once the buyer has inserted card data, stripe requests that amount of money from bank and bank places temporary hold on the funds on buyer's card/account. I think its quite strange that they processed known stolen cards.
