Is Stripe available in China?
No, not according to the official list. China is not on Stripe's list of countries and regions where Stripe is currently supported (Stripe, checked on 7 November 2026).
This list is about businesses opening a Stripe account to accept payments, not about paying with your card on a website or in a shop that uses Stripe. Not being on the list is not the same as being banned: the list only shows where Stripe offers it, and it does not give reasons.
