Case Study: Bookshop.org achieves faster mobile conversions and more revenue for independent bookshops with Stripe

Bookshop.org uses Stripe to help 2M+ customers support independent bookstores in the age of ecommerce

Bookshop.org, the online platform created to help independent local bookshops compete with large e-commerce sellers, needed a fast way to launch during the pandemic and provide a smooth way to accept card payments and route funds to individual bookstores. The company turned to Stripe to power its payments and payouts while keeping the process simple for a small team.

Using Stripe Payments and Stripe Connect, Bookshop.org quickly built its marketplace and enabled direct payouts to booksellers. Stripe helped Bookshop.org increase mobile checkout conversion rates by 36% and generate $1.7 million in new revenue for local bookshops and their communities, while helping the platform produce more than $21 million in profit for booksellers overall.
