Overview
Customers may notice that the Stripe payment connector is not available when configuring payment connectors for regions outside the US (such as Ireland or Australia) in the Twilio Console. This can cause confusion, especially if Stripe is expected to be supported in those regions.
Root Cause
Twilio’s <Pay> TwiML verb and Payment resource support a set of payment connectors that varies by region. As of this writing, Stripe is not an officially supported Pay Connector in regions outside the US, including Ireland (IE1) and Australia (AU1).
