The online payment platform 'Stripe' is helping start-ups maintain control over complicated finances with the unveiling of 'Stripe Atlas,' a service that enables online businesses to transition transaction systems to the website as seamlessly as possible. In doing so, the company has created a new feature that enables a business to set up a stock feature, as a means of supporting a new company.
