So much this. Releasing two MAJOR SDK versions with breaking changes in a single week doesn't help either. [1] I dread every time they release a new SDK version because for me it means only more work for zero value. I've got so incredibly tired of their constant flow of "innovation" in the API and SDK that I have finally gave up and created another SDK for Stripe from scratch: https://github.com/egorFiNE/simple-stripe-sdk (not yet released) [1] https://github.com/stripe/stripe-node/releases/tag/v21.0.0 and https://github.com/stripe/stripe-node/releases/tag/v22.0.0

ezekg·Nov 4, 2016
I'll be handling it the same way Stripe handles their libraries: https://github.com/stripe/stripe-node#api-overview. Account tokens are cryptographically sound enough so that it would take ages to 'find' a correct token, much less the correct token AND account. Restricting licenses by domain would need to be handled outside of Keygen; you can track the allowed machines (via fingerprinting) through the Keygen API, and then act accordingly.

I'm currently running a Node.js/Express.js/MongoDB service with a Bootstrap/jQuery frontend and iOS + Android clients. My payments mix also tends to be high volume and low margin. I have been extremely satisfied with Stripe - they have a solid api, a great npm package[1] to interface with their api, thorough documentation with examples in node[2], and a wonderful dashboard. I highly recommend them. 1) https://github.com/stripe/stripe-node 2) https://stripe.com/docs/api/node#intro
