Accept payments from more than one country

[gthb]

Trying to set up a credit card offers only “State” and “Zip code”, which presumes only one country. :)

[chadwhitacre]

What fields are needed instead?

[gthb]

Generally the non-US version is “Country” and “Postal code”.

I'm seeing credit cards that look foreign. Did you try entering a card
anyway?

Hopefully it's as simple as changing the form labels?

If you see charges to those cards going through, then maybe it is as simple as that :) ... but it might be brittle; probably worth checking whether it depends on (a) the payment processor (if you use more than one, or switch them), (b) details of how you invoke them, and (c) the particular country involved.

Okay, let's revisit this once #58 shakes out.

Thanks @gthb.

The credit card form changed slightly as part of #58. Relevant to this ticket, I changed the labels to "State or Province" and "ZIP or Postal Code," and made it clearer that the name and address fields are optional. Stripe does also take a country field. Let's leave this ticket open until that is added as well.

Worked for me! I did include the address and postal code, didn't try without them. Also included Icelandic-specific non-ASCII characters, apparently caused no problem.

Fantastic, thank you! :D

+1 to country field from @rodneyrehm (via IRC).

FWIW I just entered a French credit card and it appears to have worked properly.

I was a bit unsettled by the lack of a "country" field. I put the street in "Address 1", nothing in "Address 2", the city and country in "State or Province", and the post code in "ZIP or Postal Code". In the unlikely event you try to send postal mail to me, it should arrive :)

+1 to country field from @chakrit via Twitter.

Sounds like @chrisdev is going to take a look at this.

@whit537 Should have this been closed a long time ago?
