Stripe is a privately owned company headquartered in the US. Founded in 2010, the company has an estimated 8,210 employees. It functions as a payment processing solutions provider.
On September 18, 2026, Brown Thomas Arnotts partnered with Stripe to power online payments across its digital operations, transitioning payments on its websites and mobile apps to Stripe and offering customers access to Apple Pay, local payment methods, and Buy Now Pay Later financing through Klarna. Concurrently, RippleX integrated XRP Ledger support for the Machine Payments Protocol, an open AI-payment standard co-authored by Stripe and Tempo, enabling AI agents to make one-off payments using XRP and XRPL-issued assets like RLUSD with settlement taking approximately 3–5 seconds. Earlier the same day, Stripe expanded its crypto payments capabilities with Crypto.com, allowing customers to spend crypto balances at participating online businesses. This followed a September 18, 2026, launch by the identity-focused crypto project World, which introduced its self-custodial "World Money" financial super app in over 150 countries through a partnership with Stripe.
