Stripe funnels funds into a fresh Berlin hub
Stripe Expands Presence in Germany with New Berlin Office
Financial service provider Stripe is expanding its operations in Germany with the opening of a new office in Berlin-Kreuzberg. The new office, located at the Die Macherei quarter on Hallesches Ufer, will span 3,000 square meters and accommodate more than 100 employees [1][2].
The new office is part of a modern development emphasizing sustainable architecture, as the M40 is one of Germany’s largest hybrid wood office buildings. The choice of Kreuzberg situates Stripe in a vibrant and innovative urban area known for its creative and tech scenes.
Stripe's expansion in Germany reflects the growth of its existing users and the start of thousands of new German companies using Stripe daily. More than half of Stripe's German customers already sell internationally, and the company sees great potential in digital exports [1][2]. Stripe believes the percentage of German customers selling internationally could be higher and aims to better serve both its existing and new users with the new office.
The new Stripe office is expected to open in early 2026, and no additional details about the exact functions or teams occupying the Berlin office were found in the available search results [1][2]. As of now, the website for the new Stripe office in Berlin-Kreuzberg has not been disclosed.
Marcos Raiser do Ó, the Head of DACH at Stripe, will oversee the new office's operations. Raiser do Ó's leadership is expected to help Stripe better serve its German users and continue its growth in the region.
The new office's location in Berlin-Kreuzberg is a strategic move for Stripe, as the area is known for its vibrant and innovative tech scene. The company's expansion in Germany is a testament to its commitment to serving its users and supporting the growth of digital commerce in the region.
