How do you do credit card processing without asking for a billing address?

Stripe.

Could you elaborate on that choice?

Stripe! (No, seriously: I have the capability of running things through Paypal but a) that code is from BCC and written when I was young and stupid, and I was afraid of breaking something if I just copy/paste ported it over, b) this keeps my accountant happy, and c) there was a non-zero "risk" of this selling five figures in a day with $1,000 charges in the mix, which would mean Paypal and I would have to have a chat, and that was a complication I just didn't need right now.)
