Onboarding

Automated onboarding and verification

Connect provides the highest converting onboarding flows, built from Stripe’s learnings from optimizing onboarding experiences for thousands of marketplaces.

Preventative screening

Stripe carries out risk-based screening against lists of high-risk merchants.

Payouts

Case studies

Lyft uses Connect to pay drivers faster

Lyft’s biggest request from drivers was the ability to get paid more frequently compared to traditional weekly payouts.

Solution

Lyft worked with Stripe to build Express Pay, providing drivers the ability to decide when they want to get paid out – typically within a few hours of a ride.

Impact

In 6 months, over 40% of all payouts on Lyft were done over Express Pay. Lyft was able to add value for drivers and attract more drivers to its marketplace.
