Our partnership with Stripe is a recognition of the same dynamic: fraud prevention and acceptance rates improve the more ubiquitous their network becomes,” said Oliver Roup, vice president of product platform at Cloudflare. “Cloudflare’s increasing scale now demands support for a range of pricing structures, customer sizes and payment styles globally. Our commitment to Stripe on these endeavors is a bet that Stripe’s advantages will continue to compound and pay dividends over many years to come.”
