Answer 1

I found this code snippet on their API Documentation.

You should try to put this code on your charge.php

// Set your secret key: remember to change this to your live secret key in production
// See your keys here https://dashboard.stripe.com/account
Stripe::setApiKey("sk_test_BQokikJOvBiI2HlWgH4olfQ2");

// Get the credit card details submitted by the form
$token = $_POST['stripeToken'];

// Create the charge on Stripe's servers - this will charge the user's card
try {
    $charge = Stripe_Charge::create(array(
        "amount" => 1000, // amount in cents, again
        "currency" => "usd",
        "card" => $token,
        "description" => "payinguser@example.com")
    );
} catch(Stripe_CardError $e) {
    // The card has been declined
}

Let me know if you still have the problem to grab this token

Updated for stripe 3.12.0

namespace Stripe;

require_once('stripe-php-3.12.0/vendor/autoload.php');
require_once('stripe-php-3.12.0/lib/Stripe.php');


Stripe::setApiKey("yourAPIKey");

// Get the credit card details submitted by the form

$status;

if(isset($_POST['amount'])
{
    $amount = $_POST['amount'] * 100;


$token = Token::create(
                    array(
                            "card" => array(
                            "name" => $user['name'],
                            "number" => $user['card_number'],
                            "exp_month" => $user['month'],
                            "exp_year" => $user['year'],
                            "cvc" => $user['cvc_number']
                        )
                    )
                );


// Create the charge on Stripe's servers - this will charge the user's card

try {
  $charge = Charge::create(array(

    "amount" => $amount , // amount in cents, again
    "currency" => "usd",
    "source" => $token,
    "description" => "Example charge"
    ));} catch(Error\Card $e) {

        $status = "error: " . $e;

} catch(Error\Card $e) {
  // The card has been declined

  $status = "declined: " . $e;
}
}
else
{
    //echo "missing params";

    $status = "missing params";
}

You may check their docs. In this page they show how to get the token in different languages (Java, PHP and so on, and not only in JavaScript, as showed in their step-by-step guide)

require_once('../lib/Stripe.php');
                Stripe::setApiKey("sk_test_SrG9Yb8SrhcDNkqsGdc5eKu1");

                $result = Stripe_Token::create(
                    array(
                        "card" => array(
                            "name" => $user['name'],
                            "number" => base64decrypt($user['card_number']),
                            "exp_month" => $user['month'],
                            "exp_year" => $user['year'],
                            "cvc" => base64decrypt($user['cvc_number'])
                        )
                    )
                );

                $token = $result['id'];

                $charge = Stripe_Charge::create(array(
                      "amount" => $data_input['amount']*100,
                      "currency" => "usd",
                      "card" => $token,
                      "description" => "Charge for test@example.com" 
                ));
