Checkouts have always been built for one person. But purchases aren’t always solo decisions. SuperCheckout is reimagining checkout as a multiplayer experience — collaborative, flexible, and more aligned with how we actually buy.
Apr 18, 2025
Most checkouts weren’t designed for how people really pay
You’ve seen it:
One person buys the thing, then messages friends for their share. Or someone’s card fails and they scramble to borrow a wallet login. Or two teammates want to split a business subscription — but one ends up footing the bill.
These are multiplayer moments. But our payment infrastructure is still stuck in single-player mode.
We’re changing that.
A new mental model for checkout
SuperCheckout is built around one idea:
What if checkout behaved like a shared workspace, not a locked gate?
Instead of asking one person to complete the entire transaction — we support:
Split payments across friends, teams, or family
Stacked payments from multiple accounts
Delegated payments via shared links
Retry & fallback flows that adapt in real-time
Each flow is collaborative, transparent, and fast — just like how we already work together online.
Designed for flexibility, not assumptions
We don't assume who’s paying, how much, or with what method.
That context comes from the user — and our system adapts around it.
It’s why flows like Split by Share, Pay on My Behalf, and SuperLinks are now part of the SuperCheckout core — not addons or edge-case tools. They reflect how people actually pay in 2025.
Multiplayer is just getting started
Collaborative checkout isn’t a niche. It’s the natural next step.
From group trips to creator subscriptions, online courses to marketplace tools — more purchases are happening as shared decisions. Checkouts should reflect that.
We’re building infrastructure for the way people already behave.
Multiplayer isn’t the future — it’s already here.
