Setup Stripe in Union
Why is this important? Because you want to get paid for all your hard work - we certainly want that for you! Union is a simple, elegant, state-of-the-art online store with powerful billing capabilities under the hood. By creating a Stripe account, you can access that functionality to create passes and tickets for your events that cost money, and sell those tickets and passes online.
What does this affect? Until you create or connect a Stripe account, you cannot publish passes with a price other than $0. Once Stripe is set up, all transactions will be subject to Stripe's payment processing fees and Union's platform fee*. You can choose whether these fees are paid by your business or by the customer.
What will I need to gather before I begin?
- Your business type (sole proprietor, LLC, corporation, etc.)
- Employer ID Number / Tax ID / Social Security Number
- Your personal details (name, date of birth, Social Security Number)
- Names of all individuals or organizations holding more than 25% ownership of the business
- Business name as you'd like it to appear on your customers' credit card statements
- Bank details such as routing number and checking account number
How do I set up Stripe? If you are a new org, from your setup tasks page, simply click on Configure Bank Account. If you do not see this, please contact support@union.fit. You'll need to complete the instructions on your screen to create your new express Stripe account. After you have created or logged into your Stripe account, you will be automatically redirected back to Union.
