stripe payment element not rendering dark theme
The actual problem
Custom checkout themes hide or clip the Payment Element so buyers can’t complete card entry.
Do this
- Load checkout on mobile Safari/Chrome; confirm Payment Element fields are visible.
- Inspect CSS overflow/z-index on the payment container.
- Test Stripe’s appearance API with a known-good theme before custom CSS.
- Place a $1 live test charge after any theme deploy.
