Build a marketplace

Whether you're building a platform that needs to get sellers paid, or building applications to do more with Stripe data, you can use Connect. Learn how to connect to accounts and let Stripe handle the signup process, or choose to customize your users' experience by creating Custom accounts via the API.

Add payments to your platform

Rapidly enable payments processing for businesses and individuals using your platform. Get started by using Stripe Connect with Standard accounts.

Extend Stripe's offerings

Build features on Stripe’s core APIs, to meet businesses' needs. Start by connecting to Stripe accounts via OAuth.

Not a developer?

Although a custom Stripe integration requires you to either be, or hire, a developer, you have many alternatives. Use pre-built tools from our partners to get started with Stripe, and to do more with your Stripe account—no code required.

• Platform partners: Starting an online store, setting up a point-of-sale system, running a fundraiser, or selling tickets? Get started by using one of these platforms.

• Extension partners: Already have a Stripe account and looking for additional features? Use these extensions to add analytics, accounting, emails, shipping, taxes, and other capabilities.

• Plug-in partners: Using an open-source or self-hosted platform like WordPress, Magento, or PrestaShop to run your business? Install these plug-ins to add more features to your platform.
