Comment (by jmtodaro):

 It seems we've run into a bit of a snag here.

 It turns out that Stripe requires server-side code (ruby,python,etc.) to
 actually process charges. Stripe Checkout on it's own simply generates a
 token representing the cc details (to keep them from actually touching
 your server) and is intended to just pass along the info to be processed
 by your server-side code, which handles authentication and subscriptions
 too.

 Since everything on our servers is static this presents a bit of a
 problem. I think we could still POST to the script if we really wanted to
 host it somewhere else (with https).
