How do I set up my “pay to” account?

One of the first and most important items to tackle after signing up is adding your “pay-to” account. This is where your payments are deposited…so it’s kinda a big deal! Because we don’t want you to run into any unexpected delays in receiving payments, we ensure that your information is submitted and verified by our payment processor, Stripe, before invoices can be sent.

Where do I enter my “pay to” information?

Your My Wallet page is where you will enter your bank information.

Tip: no matter what type of business you have, it’s very important to ensure all information entered matches exactly as it appears on your legal documents, specifically your SS-4 or 147-C tax forms. Stripe will not accept nicknames, added or missing punctuation, DBA’s or any variance in the information. In addition, the name on your bank account should match the legal name you provide
