github.com/tierrun is a way to describe your pricing model and outsource it all to Stripe. I will never understand why you would outsource the gears of collecting money to Stripe or anyone else. Payment processing, yes, but the logic around deciding who to charge what (1/2)

abstraction that we cannot control or debug. #xp (2/2)
