Hi Tara, congratulations on the launch!

Do you intend to allow Treasury to be used to build new bank storefronts? For example, could someone build a slick mobile app and website and use Treasury to launch a B2B "bank", complete with FDIC insurance? Would it be acceptable to launch an offering like mercury.com entirely powered by Treasury?

Or is the intent to only allow Treasury as an adjunct to a "real" business?

Thanks!

Of course, neither Stripe nor users of Stripe Treasury would be launching a bank, but you could provide financial services for other businesses, entirely powered by Stripe Treasury and Stripe Connect. It's pretty analogous to what Shopify is doing with Stripe Connect, Treasury, and Issuing to launch Shopify Balance: https://www.shopify.com/balance
