Ok so I decided to make a landing page for my domains and would like to add a buy it now option. We know Paypal isn't so reliable for large purchases, would it be recommend to use pioneer or stripe, I really want to know what some experienced members use,
Thank you

Why don't you use escrow?

Here's an example:

https://www.gocotton.com/
Any sales yet via this method? I've been toying with adding an Escrow.com "buy now" button to my landers, but going to have to commit a few days to add the code for each name though, so have been putting it off.

Wonder if Epik has something like that?

Even if no sale through the actual button, I think having an escrow buy now option can add a sense of trust and professionalism to the lander. But making sure to add an email contact or a form so the buyer isn't limited by just the button.

I actually really like their green default buy now button, its attractive yet non-intrusive.

Yes - of course there are sales with that lander. The button actually creates a transaction on escrow.com

The guys at epik also have a lander with many templates and some customization freedom.

I'm developing a site using PHP so for it looks promising and i will be using Stripe

Unless Stripe developed something new - I would not be using a direct CC payment processor for the purpose of selling domain names.

I still think using an escrow service or the registrar directly is better (read safer).
I understand it can be cheaper but I think the risks outweigh the advantages.

What are you talking about what features?

You need to understand that Stripe is just a CC payment processor - that's it.
If you use a simple payment processor for selling domain names you have serious charge-back risk.

I see what your saying. so escrow helps with this? I heard escrow was a hassle to use though

Yup.
But don't hold me for recommending escrow. They're just cheaper.
You also have undeveloped, epik, namesilo and probably more I can't remember right now.

I am planning on using escrow.com because 4 years ago I used them on a 10k sale and it was seamless. I think they've even gotten better. Check it out and verify yourself to see if it can work for you. Good Luck.
