According to Techcrunch, Stripe’s major investor Sequoia Capital emailed LPs in funds raised between 2009 and 2011 with an offer to buy up to $861 million worth of shares in Stripe. It revealed that the company’s most recent 409A valuation was $70 billion.

In January of 2023, it was reported that Stripe had set a 12-month deadline for itself to go public or it would pursue a transaction on the private market, such as a fundraising event and a tender offer.

This spring, Stripe had inked deals with investors to provide liquidity to current and former employees through a tender offer at a $65 billion valuation.
