It focuses on providing a consistent and scalable developer experience that any developer (both internal and external) can leverage to accelerate a merchant’s ability to create value using Stripe.

The IAM Login Services team is responsible for managing authentication into Stripe. We are expanding our authentication stack to allow more teams at Stripe to integrate with it and to support AI agents authenticating into Stripe.
