On: Stripe's New Recurring Billing Features

Didn't Braintree just expand to a lot of countries: https://www.braintreepayments.com/tour/international

I signed up for the rollout to Australia, but it requires a merchant account with Westpac (!) first.

(It almost defeats the point of using it at all over one of the existing merchant-account-requiring solutions here.)

I thought it was a merchant account with NAB? (According to the application forms I have received.)

AFAIK only NAB has multi-currency acquiring solution at the moment.

It seems that Braintree's pricing isn't attractive at all, so I'll probably still go for eWay.

Ah! Sorry, I misremembered. You're right, it's NAB.

Just curious--how or where did you hear about Braintree coming to Australia? And do you know if it's available publicly? It's something I'd love to look at (even with the Westpac account requirement) I can't seem to find anything on it.

(And as zhoutong correctly pointed out above, it's NAB, not Westpac.)

I've been talking to a mob called pin.net.au who are aiming to do in Australia what Stripe does.
