how is its transaction volume compared to PayPal/Square? couldnit be a 100B company at IPO?
Is there a secondary market to buy stripe stock?
Stripe 100-200B exit IMO.
But PayPal and square have consumer app. How do we compare their valuation between them?
100b IPO? Keep dreaming. Payment margins are extremely low. You have to be moving massive amounts of money movement to do enough revenue to justify that type of valuation. Stripe’s also not the only game in town - there’s tons of processors to choose from, including ones offered by the banks in the first place.
Adyen is 60B+ ... Stripe is doing -much- better than Adyen.
Adyen did close to $278b in gross payment volume last year. Is Stripe really doing THAT much more than them? Additionally, can Stripe keep growing enough to justify that kind of valuation? Not saying they can’t, but a 100b ipo would be the largest in US history and I can’t imagine it happening unless their numbers are amazing.
Lol it will blow ur socks off
