Oh man. Payment provider data in mongo... even if by now MongoDB doesnt lose data... you REALLY want your ledger or OLTP to be in a relational, transactional database.

Coinbase uses MongoDB, Barclays uses MongoDB, BBVA uses MongoDB, Capital One uses MongoDB. Charles Schwab uses MongoDB. FICO uses MongoDB. Goldman Sachs uses MongoDB. HSBC uses MongoDB. Intuit uses MongoDB. Uk Inland Revenue uses MongoDB. UK Dept of Work and Pensions uses MongoDB.

This is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to MongoDB's use cases in Financial services. These organisations REALLY use MongoDB for financial data and they are all public references. Relational databases are great for financial data and so is MongoDB.

Stripe started with mongodb https://www.mongodb.com/blog/post/mongodb-powering-the-magic...

Don't know what they use now or if they still use it.

IIRC Stripe relies heavily on Mongo
