About Stripe

Stripe was founded in 2010 by Irish brothers Patrick and John Collison. It provides developer-first payment APIs used by companies ranging from startups to Amazon and Google. Stripe also offers Stripe Atlas (company formation), Stripe Capital (lending), Stripe Issuing (card creation), and Stripe Treasury (banking-as-a-service).

Frequently asked questions

Is Stripe for consumers or businesses?

Stripe is primarily a B2B platform for businesses and developers. Consumers don't open Stripe accounts — they interact with Stripe indirectly when paying on websites powered by it. However, Stripe also offers some consumer-facing products in select markets.

How much does Stripe charge per transaction?

Stripe's standard pricing is 1.5% + €0.25 for European cards (in Europe) or 2.9% + $0.30 per transaction in the US. Additional fees apply for international cards and currency conversion.

Does Stripe offer banking services?

Stripe Treasury allows platforms to embed financial services, including FDIC-insured accounts, card issuing, and money movement. It's an infrastructure layer, not a consumer bank.

Is Stripe publicly traded?

No. As of 2024, Stripe remains a private company despite being one of the world's most valuable startups.

Which countries does Stripe support?

Stripe supports businesses in 46+ countries and accepts payments from customers in 195+ countries in 135+ currencies.
