"What do you mean 'programmable'?" One of many options: We hit you with a webhook when it is swiped. You can either do anything you'd normally do with a webhook, deny the transaction based on any logic you want, etc. Dynamically increase/decrease limits, permit/deny MCCs, etc.

Wow. Is the the Stripe user experience protected against that? I mean, the intent is business logic, yadda yadda, but what I see there is "hang the transaction." Does the hook time out?

You've got 2 seconds. After that, we timeout and approve or deny based on your setting. Details here:https://stripe.com/docs/issuing/controls/real-time-authorizations …

So you could technically probably run a low-volume Issuing authorization server on a potato. As an engineering matter I wouldn't recommend it, but then you would have spent money from a potato, which does feel like some sort of geeky high for me.

If I could transfer ownership of the vendor Stripe account as well sell the cybernetic potato and charge shipping, all in the same transaction, this potato thing could be hot. Does Stripe support barter transactions? I am wondering how far I can go with my self-selling potato.

I think the following is literally possible with Selenium for the Atlas step: 1) Run a e-commerce website on your potato. 2) Buyer buys the potato. Potato charges their credit card. 3) Potato incorporates an LLC for the buyer using Stripe Atlas. Buyer agrees to this.

4) Potato transfers itself to the new LLC. <-- Ask your lawyer about this step. 5) Potato Holdings LLC uses its Stripe account to issue the potato a debit card. 6) You use Connect to fund Potato Holdings LLC with some money. 7) Potato uses some shipping API, pays with debit card.

"That sounds like an awful lot of work for a potato joke." Yes but it would be legendary.
