How do I connect Stripe to accept payments?

Last updated

To accept payments through Tip Jar or Product Sale, you need to connect a Stripe account. Payments are routed directly to your account via Stripe Connect — Selfbase does not hold your money.

How to connect Stripe

  1. Go to Profile → Payments in the app
  2. Tap Connect Stripe
  3. You will be redirected to Stripe's onboarding flow
  4. Complete the form — Stripe will ask for your personal details, bank account, and identity verification
  5. Once approved by Stripe, you will be redirected back to Selfbase with an active connection

The onboarding typically takes a few minutes to complete. Stripe may request additional verification documents depending on your country.

Requirements

  • You must have at least one PRO page to access Stripe Connect onboarding
  • A Stripe account (Stripe creates one for you during onboarding if you do not have one)
  • Stripe must be available in your country — check stripe.com/global for supported countries

After connecting

Once your Stripe account is active, Tip Jar and Product Sale blocks on your pages will go live. Payments are processed immediately and deposited to your bank account on Stripe's standard payout schedule.

You can track all transactions in the Transactions view on each page.

Good to know

  • Selfbase takes a small platform fee from each transaction
  • You can disconnect or re-connect Stripe at any time under Profile → Payments
  • If your Stripe account is pending verification, payment blocks will show as unavailable until the verification is complete
