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.
Example SS-4 and 147-C forms on the IRS website here.
What happens once I submit my pay to information?
Stripe will review your information and if no further verification is needed, your account will be approved (usually within -2 business days). If Stripe needs more information from you, they will send an email.
Once your pay-to account is verified, head back to your pay-to section, click the arrow on the top-right of the table, and view and manage payments deposited to your account. From here, you will see payout dates, amounts, client names, and quick links to invoices. You can also export payments (click the pink paper icon) for all your bookkeeping needs!
