Introduction

So, you have a POWR app with payments enabled, and you need to connect your Stripe account. Well, you've come to the right place!

In this article, we will outline how to create a Stripe account and how to connect it to your POWR app to add many new ways to collect payments for your business.

 

How To Create A Stripe Account

To create a new Stripe account, make sure you have the following information ready:
  • Bank account details (transit number, institution number, and account number)
  • Social Insurance Number or Business Number (Tax ID) if you’re a corporation
  • Details about your business

After entering your name, email and creating a secure password, you will then proceed to Activate payments.
