Stripe’s annual letter reports 99.999% payment-service availability in 2023, equivalent to about 99,999 available moments in every 100,000.

Calculation

p ≈ 0.99999 reported annual availability

Assumptions

The model samples a moment uniformly from the historical provider-reported aggregate. It does not mean that every purchase is authorized: card declines, fraud checks, banks, customer networks, and current availability are outside the measure.
