> Currently we are UK-only. We will be rolling out internationally soon.

I don't think this is a bad thing - there are plenty of British only websites, and IMHO, too many US-only payment solutions.

[mattmanser → alexchamberlain]

Far, far too many.

If they've done this right then this is excellent! This has been such an obvious gap in the market too, I'm glad someone's tackling it.

Thanks mattmanser.

Hopefully you'll like our implementation. We are working hard to make sure it's done right.

This is great news. Finally a UK-based payments solution. The difficulty/cost of getting a Merchant Account and taking payments is what has put me off beginning any of my weekend projects in earnest. Wishing you the best of luck with this.

That was good to see. For EU payments (no sign they are going global) this would make a great solution. Less use for me while still UK only, but I am sure there are lots of UK businesses that could start using it now.

Any ETA for a rollout in EU?

[hirokitakeuchi → dedene]

We are looking to roll out across EU as soon as possible. We are in discussions with the banks to make this happen.
