December Stripe Developer Digest

Climate orders

You can now preorder permanent carbon removal with just a few clicks in the Dashboard or a single API call. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) estimates that the world will need to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. To enable you to build solutions that help scale carbon removal, we’re introducing the Climate Orders API. Whether you’re building a feature in your checkout flow or a full-scale marketplace, you and your customers can now contribute to carbon removal. Give it a try and let us know what you build.
