Today, we’re launching the Stripe Partner Program to amplify and help grow our platform, plugin, and extension partners.

Thousands of companies like Shopify, DocuSign, WooCommerce, and Xero work with Stripe to let businesses and individuals accept payments directly within their products. Other companies, like Segment or Avalara, build extensions that add new features and capabilities to the Stripe platform.

Stripe’s APIs and operational infrastructure help partners bring businesses online and enable new types of businesses. We help handle everything related to payments, including global compliance, 24×7 payments support, and supporting the latest features.

We’ve been thrilled to see the new payment experiences that our partners have built and we’ve designed our program to enable them to build and launch faster, reach more customers, and operate at scale.

Registering for the Stripe Partner Program is free. Partners get access to documentation and best practices collected from across the Stripe network to help them optimize their integration and launch quickly and easily.

Partners can also choose to become a Stripe Verified Partner to get additional benefits—from the ability to escalate support requests on behalf of their customers to a listing in our curated partners gallery to reach Stripe businesses. (Learn more about the verification process and pricing.)

This is just the start. We’re excited to build more products and resources for our partners in the future. If you have any questions, feedback, or are considering building an integration, please get in touch!
