Case Study: Handyhand achieves 500% revenue growth with Stripe Connect

Handyhand increases revenue by 500% using Stripe Connect

Handyhand, a Copenhagen-based digital marketplace for household and handyman services, needed a reliable way to handle payments between customers and service providers as it scaled. The startup chose Stripe, including Stripe Payments and later Stripe Connect, to support onboarding, payouts, and multiple payment methods while keeping development resources focused on growth.

With Stripe, Handyhand automated provider verification and bank setup, added instant payouts and options like MobilePay, Apple Pay, and Google Pay, and gave providers access to earnings reports. The impact was significant: provider onboarding dropped from days to minutes, payment-related code maintenance fell by more than 50%, conversion rates rose by 15%, and revenue from service bookings increased by 500% over 12 months.
