I had the same question, but phrased as: how does it make money?
It doesn't, hence Stripe allowed it to "be indie" again. You simply do not give up ownership of cash cows.
Perhaps indirectly driving people towards using Stripe's services?
That was explicitly stated at some point - more entrepreneurs, more Stripe customers. Lifting tide.
