Stripe, a financial infrastructure platform for businesses, on Tuesday (May 24) announced it has launched Stripe Apps and the Stripe App Marketplace, creating a one-stop shop for more than 50 payments-related apps and allowing developers to build and publish apps to millions of businesses or use them internally.
Stripe App Marketplace includes apps from DocuSign, Dropbox, Intercom, Mailchimp, Ramp, and Xero with more to come, according to the company announcement Tuesday (May 24). Stripe Apps “allows businesses to simplify operations and combine fragmented workflows,” the announcement said.
“With Stripe Apps, businesses can customize Stripe with their SaaS tools to best serve their customers,” Bowen Pan, head of product for Stripe Apps, said in the company announcement. “We’re excited for this new chapter and can’t wait to see the ingenuity of all the apps that developers will build in the months and years ahead.”
Stripe Apps allows businesses to customize their Stripe accounts and enables automated sharing of contextual information across apps, keeping systems of record in sync and giving users a fuller view of their business, the press release said.
The Stripe App Marketplace includes apps for accounting, analytics, CRM, eSignature, marketing and more, with new additions coming soon, including apps in non-English languages. Developers can build and publish in the Marketplace or develop custom apps for use within their own companies.

Last week, Stripe launched Stripe Data Pipeline to help consolidate data with Amazon Redshift or Snowflake Data Cloud. The platform syncs Stripe data with those two platforms so they can be queried in combination with other business information.
Businesses can then use their data to speed up their financial close and automate reporting to identify key insights, such as best performing payment methods or the best fraud modeling approach.
Stripe said Data Pipeline will offer reliable data delivery, letting users send their data to Snowflake Data Cloud or Amazon Redshift with a few clicks. It will offer comprehensive business reports, and the fact that Data Pipeline is built right into Stripe’s financial platforms allows for quality data integrity and security. It will also add fraud detection measures, assessing fraud signals such as chargebacks.
