Stripe is not a default gateway. The Stripe extension is included for free with Event Organiser Pro Developer License, but can also be purchased seperately.
Stripe is an easy way to accept credit card payments for bookings without users ever leaving your site. If you do not have a Stripe account you can sign up for one here: https://stripe.com/. Please note that at the time of writing Stripe is not as widely supported as PayPal so you should consult this page first: https://support.stripe.com/questions/what-countries-does-stripe-support. Please note this restricting refers to the merchant and not the bookee.
