Indentation is off (slightly overindented) in app.py on lines 22-25 and 27-32.

To use the amount in the charge template, you'll want to use the format filter: https://gist.github.com/octaflop/5860862

<h2>Thanks, you payed <strong>$
    {{ '%(amt).2f'|format(amt=amount/100) }}
</strong>!</h2>

Line #22 ~ #23 indention error. There should be 2 spaces in the front of each line.

If anyone is getting a TemplateNotFound exception with this example, just make a directory called templates and put the templates in that directory, and it'll work. This is because Flask looks for templates in the templates directory.

I've noticed that the email address entered on the checkout ends up as the “card holders name” and the hard-coded address is the customer's email address. Any way to fix that?

Why
customer = stripe.Customer.create( email='customer@example.com', card=request.form['stripeToken'] )

instead of

customer = stripe.Customer.create( email=request.form['stripeEmail'], card=request.form['stripeToken'] )?

What about writing unit tests for all of this?

How will you pass values dynamically from the script form using the POST request? For example:

amount = request.form['amount'] 
description = request.form['description']

Then you can use them in the charge object thus avoiding the hard coded values like:

charge = stripe.Charge.create( 
    customer = customer.id, 
    amount = amount, 
    currency = 'usd', 
    description = description
 )
