Sub-claim "Payments systems offer new currency capabilities for global …": 30% covered by S1
Sub-claim "These capabilities are designed to reduce foreign exchange c…": 40% covered by S1
Sub-claim "The innovations address needs of businesses operating across…": 30% covered by S1
The gathered sources do not fully support the claim that 'Payments systems offer new currency capabilities for global businesses' or that 'The innovations address needs of businesses operating across borders.' S1 discusses Stripe's specific upgrades but does not generalize to 'payments systems' broadly, and S2 is unrelated to the query's focus on currency capabilities and FX costs for global businesses. Coverage is low for all sub-claims, so additional information is needed.
Sub-claim "Payments systems offer new currency capabilities for global …": 80% covered by S1 — S1 directly states 'Two product upgrades make it easy for global businesses to manage FX entirely on Stripe' and mentions multicurrency settlement and instant currency conversion, clearly covering the claim.
Sub-claim "These capabilities are designed to reduce foreign exchange c…": 90% covered by S1 — S1's article title explicitly mentions 'cut FX costs' and the content describes capabilities for managing FX, strongly supporting cost reduction.
Sub-claim "The innovations address needs of businesses operating across…": 70% covered by S1 — S1 refers to 'global businesses' and 'multicurrency settlement to more markets', which implies cross-border operations, though it doesn't explicitly detail cross-border needs beyond that.
All claims have coverage above 0.5, and the gathered sources provide adequate support. The remaining skipped sources do not directly relate to the specific claims about new currency capabilities, FX cost reduction, or cross-border business needs in payments, so no additional purchases are necessary within the budget.

Final coverage assessment — The gathered sources cover some aspects of the claims but not comprehensively. S1 directly supports the first two sub-claims, but the third sub-claim about addressing cross-border business needs is only partially implied. S2 is unrelated to the specific claims about new capabilities reducing FX costs. More sources are needed to fully validate the third sub-claim.
