About Stripe

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies—from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups—use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone’s reach while doing the most important work of your career.

About Stripe Press

Stripe Press publishes books about technology, science, and economics because we believe that for many of the most significant breakthroughs in each of these categories, the key ingredient is ideas. The Stripe Press audience is global, fiercely curious, and extremely high-agency. We hope our work — which ranges in scope from books which advance a moral case for economic growth or offer models for scaling a company or engineering management, to podcasts about infrastructure — can be tools that inspire optimism, catalyze research and development, increase entrepreneurship, and ultimately, accelerate progress.
