Set up online card and bank payments
Owners connect Stripe and check whether customer payments are ready.
Only an owner can connect online payments. On the web, open Settings, then Payments. On the phone, open Settings, then Account. Setup opens in the browser and can return to the phone.
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Unavailable | Online payments are not available for this business yet |
| Not set up | Stripe setup can begin. Payments stay off |
| In review | Stripe is reviewing the account. Payments stay off |
| Action needed | Stripe still needs business or bank details. Payments stay off |
| Ready | Card and bank payments pay out to the Stripe account |
Select Set up online payments and complete the Stripe steps. Leaving the form, or returning to the phone, leaves the status unchanged until Stripe approves both charges and payouts. Customers cannot pay online until it says Ready. Until then, their pay page asks them to contact the business or pay with Zelle or cash. Save a Zelle phone or email on the same Payments page so the invoice can show it.
The owner can also save a card used only for the 1% fee on cash, check, and Zelle payments they record. That card is charged once the fee balance reaches $0.50.
After setup, the owner can open the Stripe dashboard. MyExpertPros does not add its 1% fee to the customer's invoice total.
