> Has Stripe fixed their webhooks so that they re-POST when the endpoint is down? They can't be compared to IPN until they implement it reliably... without that you have to manually reconcile Stripe's data with your own database to be sure you haven't lost a post during brief downtime, network glitch, transient application or proxy error...

We're working on this right now. It's part of a larger redesign of our webhook system that we started right before the break, and we should be able to launch it pretty soon. Our webhooks are the last somewhat legacy part of our product, so I'm pretty happy that it's getting reworked.




That's great. I don't mean to rag on Stripe, it's just one of the things that's held it back from being an easy PayPal replacement even in the US.
