Step-by-Step Stripe Setup

Complete in under 5 minutes — required before accepting bookings

1

Go to Settings → Stripe Connect

Find the Stripe Connect section under Account Settings. Only visible when you're in Consultant Mode.

2

Click "Connect Stripe Account"

You'll be redirected to Stripe's secure onboarding flow. NexProLink never sees your bank details — everything is handled directly by Stripe.

Your data is safe. Stripe is used by Amazon, Google, and millions of businesses worldwide.

Complete Stripe Onboarding Form

Stripe requires these details for tax compliance and identity verification:

Legal name (business or personal)
Tax ID (SSN or EIN)
Date of birth
Bank account (routing + account #)
✓

Verification Complete!

Stripe verifies your info (usually instant). Once approved, you can start accepting bookings and receiving automatic payouts to your bank account.


Why Stripe Needs This Information

Required by US financial regulations — your data is encrypted and secure

Tax ID (SSN/EIN)

Required by law for 1099 tax reporting. Encrypted with bank-grade security.

Bank Account

Where payouts go. Same security level as your online banking.

Identity Verification

Prevents fraud and money laundering. Required by financial regulations.


Common Questions

Is my bank information safe?

Yes. Stripe is a regulated financial institution used by millions of businesses worldwide. They're PCI-DSS Level 1 certified (highest security standard). NexProLink never stores your bank details.

Do I need a business bank account?

No. Personal bank accounts work fine. If you have an LLC or corporation, you can use your business account instead.

When do I receive my first payout?

Usually within 2 business days after a completed session — your first payout can take a little longer while Stripe finishes setting up your account. After that, every payout is automatic.

Can I change my bank account later?

Yes. Access your Stripe dashboard (link in Settings) and update bank details anytime.

Ready to Get Paid?

Connect Stripe now and start accepting bookings. You'll receive 85% of every session automatically.
