Add-on What payment gateways do you want support for?

We're considering an add-on to add additional payment gateways to xf2, if we developed such a thing what payment gateways would you want to support?
 
When it comes to payments, software needs to be extremely robust and bug free. There is absolutely no room for wonky or buggy software, because that would result in angry customers, fraud claims and even income disruption.
I don't think its the same as creating other addons. It would need to be rock solid from the start.

Important gateways are:

Are there any decent alternatives to Paypal for US / Canada based sites? I haven't seen any that have lower fees & are as easy to use.
 
Xsolla is one that I'm looking at adding to our site as we have people all over the place.

Took a look into that, don't see anything about web payments through it though. Could you link me to details for that?

At least PayPal and Stripe.

Both are supported in xf2 by default, though I'm considering some additional PayPal options for Express Checkout and an option for Stripe to just enter your payment details on the website directly (though if you do this the details will touch your server and you'll have to look into PCI compliance but the process will seem a bit more seamless to the end user)

Just take note though that we have changed the Stripe process in XF2 now.

We no longer use Checkout.js, and the payment details are entered directly into an XF style overlay and inputs. However they do not touch your server and therefore still qualify for SAQ-A PCI compliance. It uses their "Elements" system so the inputs are actually hosted on their servers and the card details provided are tokenized. Only the token is sent to the server.
 
You can see the Stripe process here:

We made some changes so it would be easier to support a payment provider's additional payment methods (such as Apple Pay, in this example).
 
Will probably hold off on starting on this until the next dev preview to see what has changed then :)
 
We've already shown what has changed. None of the framework has changed. I was just warning against wasting your time providing an alternative to Stripe Checkout because we've already done that.

Oh, okay. Thought you meant there were changes to the framework. Will be looking into the suggested payment methods

Primarily paymentwall, as it has the most options.
