What should I put on Stripe?

So - big banking ain’t all too big a fan of the humble society. But luckily, we’ve figured it out for y’a.

If you’re an individual, or like a DJ collective or that kinda thing, no problem - hit sole trader and then add your details in. 

If you’re a registered business, it’s even easier. Follow the steps for registered / incorporated business x. 

If you’re a society, and don’t fit the above, best bet is to go for sole trader / individual and then, if asked, membership organisation. For legal name - you are safe to use your personal name and address, and this can be changed when you move on. If you don’t have a website- use your group’s Instagram url.

You’ll be able to edit / update / add team members etc to your stripe account, so don’t worry (see bottom of page) x

You might need to provide some verification documentation - money stuff, just to prove you aren’t an international hitman. 

If you need to access your stripe later to check payouts, or edit info / add new admins, check out our explainer here
