I do not live in a country where Stripe operates. It is only in 44 countries — all in the ‘developed’ world’.

I live on an tiny, beautiful island in the Caribbean, Stripe ain’’t reach us yet.

I have been able to become a medium member by paying my monthly subscription through paypal. So the point of my limerick was that if you can accept payment through paypal, then you can pay through them as well ;)
