Yeah, I was excited about this news but I'm having a hard time not wanting to go with CardConnect and a Bolt reader due to the lower costs. I really like the Stripe docs but there are some products (including a would-be-cool-to-have feature of something I'm currently working on) that are just impossible with the fees Stripe charges. I would almost swallow the 2.9% if not for the $.30 hit per transaction. As it stands today I'm fully built on Stripe but after I prove it all works in "production" I'm considering switching to CC. While their docs suck in comparison there is just way too much money (and un-buildable-features) that are being left on the table when it comes to Stripe.

For reference: I use CC for my $dayJob and while it's far from as nice as Stripe in just about every way, it's easy enough to code against. Just be ok with having to build out more infrastructure and store more data on your end to get close to what Stripe provides. That said, I think I'm ok with that if it means not having to pay $0.30/transaction and the high %.
