Which of the following is a Stripe business solution category that includes Connect?

• A. Subscriptions and SaaS: Billing, Invoicing
• B. Platforms & Marketplaces: Connect
• C. Omnichannel: Terminal
• D. FinTech: Treasury, Capital, Issuing

Answer: (B)

Stripe categorizes its products by the type of business they serve, and Connect sits in the Platforms & Marketplaces group. That category is built for multi-party platforms that need to onboard users, manage payments, and handle payouts to connected accounts. Connect is the tool designed exactly for that workflow—onboarding and verification of connected accounts, routing payments, and handling compliant payouts for a marketplace or platform.

Subscriptions and SaaS focuses on recurring billing and invoicing, not on connecting and paying out to multiple accounts. Omnichannel: Terminal is about in-person card payments, typically for a merchant’s own sales channels. FinTech: Treasury, Capital, Issuing covers cash management, lending, and card issuance features. These are separate areas from Connect, which is why the Platforms & Marketplaces category is the correct place for Connect.
