About the team
Did you know that only around 4% of the world’s GDP comes from internet commerce? At Stripe, we believe that this represents a future with almost limitless potential for innovation, creativity, and global prosperity. While the promise of a global online economy is palpable, it comes with significant risk. Each day, bad actors disrupt the trust and safety of the internet and increase the barrier to entry for online businesses. The Financial Crimes team ensures that our platform remains safe, that prohibited parties are not allowed to utilize our services, and that we identify bad actors engaging in money laundering or other financial crimes.
