Stripe Becomes Ryder Cup’s Worldwide Payments Partner

Founded in 1927, the Ryder Cup is a biennial match-play contest featuring 12 leading professional golfers from the United States against 12 from Europe. The event draws millions of viewers and hundreds of thousands of spectators, creating a complex payments environment spanning tickets, hospitality, food and beverages, merchandise and retail. Bringing Stripe into the top tier of sponsors underscores how major sports properties are turning to integrated digital infrastructure to streamline transactions and financial reporting.
