Stripe CFO exiting to handle ‘family matters’


Dhivya Suryadevara will leave the digital payments startup in April, as Stripe executives weigh taking the company public

Suryadevara will be staying with Stripe, which has dual headquarters in San Francisco and Dublin, until April, “given everything going on at the company,” she wrote. 

John Collison will lead the company’s finance function while Stripe searches for a permanent replacement, Bloomberg reported.

The payments software provider announced on Jan. 23 that it has become “a strategic payments partner” with Amazon in the U.S., Europe and Canada under an “expanded global agreement” between the companies, according to an online post. The Amazon deal is coveted and a deal many payments companies are vying for given Amazon’s retail reach across the internet.

Also this week, Stripe’s potential competitor Checkout.com announced leadership changes with Nirupam Sinha’s appointment to the CFO seat as part of the London-based company’s U.S. expansion plans. The leadership changes mark the latest development in Checkout.com’s plan to “take on Stripe,” according to a company spokesperson.
