Case Study: Instacart speeds up grocery delivery with Stripe

Instacart speeds up grocery delivery with Stripe

Instacart, North America’s leading online grocery marketplace, partnered with Stripe to simplify the complex payments flows that move funds between customers, shoppers, and hundreds of retail partners. Faced with a multi-sided platform and a complicated backend, Instacart needed a unified, easy-to-use payments experience that could serve national chains and local grocers as well as millions of shoppers and customers.

Stripe powers Instacart’s payments infrastructure at scale—using tools like Connect, Radar, and Sigma—to provide streamlined onboarding, reporting, fraud protection, and features such as Instant Cashout. As a result, Stripe processes 100% of Instacart payments in the US and Canada, enables 500,000 shoppers to use Instant Cashout, supports millions of customers, and helped Instacart scale smoothly during surge growth while simplifying operations for grocery partners.
