These Brothers Hacked the Entire Payment System. Legally And Beat PayPal at Its Own Game.

Patrick and John Collison are Irish brothers and the co-founders of Stripe, a popular online payment processing platform.

They are also known for their work in the tech industry and their involvement in other ventures like Fast Grants and Arc Institute.

In this episode, we dive into the genius journey of John and Patrick Collison—two brothers from a small Irish town who quietly rewired the internet. From coding in their teens to building Stripe, the $50 billion company powering online payments, their story is anything but ordinary.

With no flashy ads, no celebrity investors, and no background in finance, they tackled one of tech’s biggest headaches: getting paid online. What started as a side project turned into the invisible engine behind Amazon, Shopify, and millions more.

Today, they’re redefining what it means to build quietly, think globally, and win relentlessly. This is the story of how they built the internet’s financial backbone—without anyone noticing.
