I'll bite. I _worked_ at Stripe. Stripe has no authority in decision making here, the issuing bank decides (eg the customers bank) who wins and losses chargebacks. Stripe is a conduit of information, not a party to the decision.

I believe they're looking to imply here that they own their own charter, rather than renting someone else's, which is how almost all U.S. fintech companies operate (look in the website footer of, say, Unit and you'll see: "Banking services are provided by Unit's partner banks who are Member FDIC.")
