Today, we announced that Stripe is powering OpenAI’s newly launched commerce experience: Instant Checkout in ChatGPT. It is powered by the Agentic Commerce Protocol, a new open standard developed by Stripe and OpenAI that enables programmatic commerce flows between AI agents and businesses.
Our recent survey of 2,000+ global business leaders showed that the fastest-growing companies are approaching pricing differently than their peers. Here are some of the strategies behind their success.
Among global business leaders surveyed, 84% agree that adapting pricing quickly will be a key competitive advantage. Our new real-time analytics system for Stripe Billing helps them spot customer trends just as they emerge.
While businesses are rapidly building AI products, monetization remains a challenge. In this post, we share a framework for building a successful pricing strategy with key decision points on charge metrics, billing models, and guardrails.
Our analysis showed that even with very high two-factor authentication trigger rates—which traditionally add friction to the checkout flow—France, the UK, and Japan still maintain high conversion rates.
Our recent survey of more than 4,000 payments leaders worldwide showed that 47% of businesses now use an AI tool or feature to detect and prevent fraud—making it the most popular application of AI in payments. But adoption isn’t uniform across all sectors. Understanding which types of companies are leading this shift—and why—offers insights into where fraud prevention is heading and which strategies are most effective.
Stripe’s users rely on us to calculate tax correctly and quickly, no matter where a transaction happens. Our new jurisdiction resolution system (JRS) is a faster, less resource-intensive solution to the challenging problem of determining tax obligations in places with complicated, overlapping tax jurisdictions.
AI companies are rewriting the rules of growth. In our new report, Indexing the AI economy, we explore the latest trends and strategies in the AI space.
Stripe Tax is now an all-in-one global tax compliance solution, after adding international registration and filing to round out its tax calculation and collection features.
Last month at Stripe Sessions, we announced Global Payouts, which allows you to easily and securely send money to third parties around the world. Global Payouts is part of our biggest-ever upgrade to Stripe to make it less expensive, complex, and time-consuming for you to fund, store, and pay out in multiple currencies.
Earlier this month at Stripe Sessions, we announced Stablecoin Financial Accounts—our largest effort to date in expanding money management capabilities to businesses across the globe. Entrepreneurs and businesses in 101 countries can now easily access a dollar-denominated stablecoin balance to store and move money on crypto or established financial rails right from their Stripe Dashboard.
Stripe has been using AI in our payments products for over a decade, and we’re continuing to expand how we put AI to use on your behalf. Last week at Stripe Sessions, we introduced our Payments Intelligence Suite, which uses AI to make hundreds of automated, real-time decisions to maximize your profits—with no effort required.
We announced the ability to manage multiple payment providers from within Stripe, two new extensibility primitives, support for turnkey consumer issuing programs, new money management capabilities, and a lot more.
Over the last year we’ve seen a 40% increase in the share of noncard payment volume on Stripe. To help you adapt your fraud prevention strategy to this changing set of payment method preferences, we’re extending Radar’s fraud protection to cover ACH and SEPA payments.
Last week, we shared new data that helps businesses understand the conversion and revenue benefits of offering different payment methods. Now we want to share how we ran the experiment. As we explain in the rest of this post, we had to test millions of combinations of payment methods while ensuring that we maintained a consistent shopping experience for customers.
We have data that shows when at least one additional relevant payment method beyond cards is dynamically surfaced, businesses on average see a meaningful increase in conversion and revenue.
Last month, we improved our AI tooling to give you even more flexibility when combating fraud. Now, Radar’s new rules combine our machine learning models with the issuer’s CVC and postal code response in real time. This can help you minimize fraud while worrying less about accidentally blocking legitimate revenue.
The Optimized Checkout Suite uses AI to personalize the checkout experience—dynamically adjusting everything from payment method ordering to fraud interventions in order to maximize conversion and boost revenue.
