Load Stripe.js with Require.js

Question

I'm having trouble loading Stripe.js with Require.js. My setup looks a bit like this

requirejs.config({
  paths: {
    'stripe': 'https://js.stripe.com/v3/?noext'
  },
  shim: {
    'stripe': {
      exports: 'stripe'
    }
  }
});

This actually does work, that is, I can see the script tag in the dom but when I require it it's undefined. Any ideas what could be happening here?

The global that stripe exports is Stripe with an uppercase "S". The exports needs to match the global export exactly, meaning case.

This works:

requirejs.config({
  paths: {
    'stripe': 'https://js.stripe.com/v3/?noext'
  },
  shim: {
    'stripe': {
      exports: 'Stripe' // Uppercase
    }
  }
});

require(['stripe'], function(s) {
  // Based on code from https://stripe.com/docs/stripe-js/elements/quickstart
  const ss = s('pk_test_g6do5S237ekq10r65BnxO6S0');
  const elements = ss.elements();
  const card = elements.create('card');
  card.mount('#card-element');
});

<div id="card-element"></div>

This doesn't:

requirejs.config({
  paths: {
    'stripe': 'https://js.stripe.com/v3/?noext'
  },
  shim: {
    'stripe': {
      exports: 'stripe' // Lowercase
    }
  }
});

require(['stripe'], function(s) {
  console.log(s); // undefined
});
