I have been testing to get Stripe correctly working for the following scenario: - support creditcards; - support iDeal (Netherlands). I basically only want to support Dutch customers for now. The issues I face are: - the checkout never shows me iDeal while it works in Stripe preview; - you cannot disable cards, the pickaxe checkout complains about it. One of the reason might be that Pickaxe thinks it is located in the US always? Attached screenshot of Stripe preview payment checkout: ![pickaxe](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex004/uploads/pickaxeproject/original/2X/c/cc1ca74fb99215408b2d75c1fd3d4333fa861cde.png) I also see Paypal isn’t in my list when using the Pickaxe payment methods configuration, correct? All these things are blocking to get it run in Europe for just local customers. Cheers, ---

Have you seen our video on setting up other payment methods? I’d look at the payment methods section in particular.

Hi, Yes, it does not work while some of my other projects work fine with Stripe. We cannot just offer Ideal for example. I’m using country filters. In Stripe preview it shows correct but for real it does not work. I think it would be nice to display a custom button in the tiers page to support Stripe payment links or other checkout procedures. We could add users manually. It’s a shame, I would love to offer this to customers. Also hard to remove tiers and tell people to pay differently. Cheers. ---

I’m confused. The procedure outlined in the video should allow you to select other payment methods. Is that not working for you? ---
