About Stripe

Economic infrastructure for the internet.

Tech

Stripe provides the technical, fraud prevention, and banking infrastructure required to operate online payment systems. As summarized by the San Francisco Chronicle in 2019, Stripe succeeded by "[distilling] the complex, creaking infrastructure of online payments into a handful of lines of code that could be inserted into a clients website."

Identity verification is a core piece of economic infrastructure for online businesses. We’ve built an identity solution that helps businesses maintain trust & safety.
