YES PLEASE! ive beeeen waiting for stripe to come to South Africa, alot of other developers i know too are terribly frustrated of the unstable payment gateways we have down here. Stripe would be a much needed breath of fresh air.

I'm in the process of evaluating payment gateways for a Saas app that's currently using Stripe in the US, but needs to move to South Africa in the next few months. The closest I've come to something similar to Stripe is 2Checkout, but the lack proper of support for subscriptions (trial periods, product id's) is very dissapointing.

Yea, im considering using PayU while waiting for Stripe. Just really dislike the fact that they use soap services

PayU(http://payu.co.za)

PayU subscriptions:http://help.payu.co.za/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=8553425

Local newish payment processor that looks quite slick: http://www.peachpayments.com/

Haven't tried them, though.

Yes, I need you in South Africa as well!
