Embed payments into your platform or marketplace

# Build with Stripe Community
# Stripe Connect
A marketplace or platform product often starts with a simple idea: help people buy from, hire, or sell to one another. When money moves between customers, your business, and the businesses or service providers you support, payments become part of the product.
Join Stripe LAGOS Community for a peer-led 60-minute introduction to embedded payments with Stripe Connect. This session is for aspiring and startup founders, vibe coders, developers, and product leaders. You don’t need a finished product or prior experience with Stripe Connect, embedded payments, or marketplaces to take part.
During the session, you’ll:
  • Start with a product idea and map the payment model. Understand who pays, who earns, and the role your platform or marketplace plays.
  • Compare two common models. Discuss the differences between a platform that helps businesses accept payments from their own customers and a marketplace that brings customers together with sellers or service providers.
  • Follow an example payment flow. See how onboarding, payments, routing funds, payouts, and platform operations can fit together.
  • Explore ways to get started. Review AI-assisted example that uses a description of your business to explore Connect guidance, and Stripe’s Interactive Platform Guide and Connect docs for a self-directed path
  • Learn how Stripe Connect can support the payment experience. See how its capabilities can match your changing product, customers, and operational needs.
You’ll leave with:
  • A clearer view of how money could move through your product
  • A better understanding of the questions that shape an embedded payments experience
  • Next steps, whether you want to use an AI coding assistant, work through Stripe’s guided resources, or read the documentation
Bring an idea you’re working on, an existing business that needs embedded payments help, or simply your curiosity. You can follow the AI-assisted example live, but coding, tool setup, and payments expertise aren’t required. This is a welcoming orientation and conversation, not a technical implementation workshop.
