The Terminal Partnerships team sits within the Global Partnerships organization as part of our Expansion and Incubation Pillar. Stripe is building in-person payments products, such as Stripe Terminal, to enable Stripe users to extend their online presence into the physical world and help all merchants create a unified commerce experience. This enables businesses to unlock in-person payments experiences that are best suited for their business model—whether it’s creating a flagship retail experience, unifying their online and offline commerce, or enabling a consumer mobile device to accept payments. The Terminal Partnerships is responsible for developing and managing relationships that enable Stripe to launch and scale Terminal globally. Our team executes on high-impact, cross-functional initiatives that enable new product experiences and growth areas for Stripe Terminal through our partnerships. 

 

In 2024, we have considerably expanded our Terminal partnership ecosystem to bring flexibility and innovation to unified commerce with partners such as FreedomPay to better serve modernizing enterprises, a number of direct POS Connectors across retail and hospitality and 3P hardware composability in support of expanding Tap to Pay on Android.  This is only the beginning as we drive Stripe Terminal to new levels of usability and reach in 2025 and beyond.
