I'm getting an error when I try to connect
Follow the steps:
Refresh and retry: sometimes it's just a temporary glitch
Check your browser: Chrome, Safari, Firefox, and Edge all work well
Turn off browser extensions: ad blockers and privacy tools can sometimes interfere with Stripe's verification
Try a different device: if you're on mobile, switch to desktop (or vice versa)
Still stuck? Contact us with a screenshot of the error and we'll dig in.
My bank account was rejected
Stripe checks your bank details during setup. Common reasons it might not work:
Typo in your account number or sort code
You entered business account details for a personal account (or the other way round)
Currency mismatch — your bank account currency needs to match your Stripe payout currency
Double-check your details and try again. If it's still not working, Stripe's support team can help with bank-specific issues: Stripe Support →
