About the team

Financial Connections is building the data connectivity layer for open finance and money movement. We are building tools for individuals and businesses to seamlessly share their financial data with Stripe and the businesses we power to unlock new product experiences, receive payouts, and make payments. We empower ambitious global businesses to build innovative products fast and run their entire financial lifecycle on Stripe, and we want you to be part of our story.

Financial Connections is part of Link. Stripe created Link to reimagine how merchants and consumers do business. With Link, you can save your payment information to be used at hundreds of thousands businesses and you can connect & manage bank accounts.
