Connect Stripe payouts

Connect your Stripe account so clients can pay invoices online and the money is paid out to your bank.

Why use it

Chasing cheques and bank transfers slows down every project. With Stripe connected, each invoice you send carries a way to pay online by card or bank transfer, and the money is paid out to your own Stripe account.

When to use it

Before your first invoice. Clients can't pay online until Stripe is connected.
After setup stalls. If the card says Stripe setup incomplete, choose Continue setup to finish where you left off.
When your business details change. Choose Edit to update them on Stripe.

Before you start

You are the owner, or an admin with the Payouts permission. Without it the card is read-only.
Have your business, tax and bank details ready. Stripe asks for them during onboarding.
