The startup raised $600 million in new funding on Wednesday, boosting its already sky-high valuation to nearly $36 billion.
The funding was an extension on the startup's Series G round and came together in the past few weeks amid the coronavirus outbreak, as Stripe snapped up a growing number of customers. Digital payments platform Stripe has raised $600 million in new funding and is now valued at nearly $36 billion, co-founder and president John Collison tells Axios.
