What is Stripe?

Stripe is a secure and widely trusted payment platform used by millions of businesses, universities, and organizations around the world. It's the same system companies like Google, Amazon, and Lyft rely on to safely send and receive payments.

Handshake AI uses Stripe to verify your identity and ensure that payments are processed accurately and securely. Your information is encrypted, never shared or sold, and handled only for verification and payout purposes. Setting up Stripe helps us confirm it's really you and ensures your payments are sent to the correct account.
