Connecting Stripe Connect

Stripe Connect is how Chamberly orchestrates online payments while your chamber retains full ownership of its Stripe account and funds. You connect once, and Chamberly handles checkout sessions, webhooks, and refunds on your behalf.

• Confirm subscription is Pro or Premier under Settings > Billing.

• Have ready: chamber EIN, bank account/routing for payouts, an admin's identity info.

• Confirm the chamber's primary admin will complete the Stripe identity check.

1. Go to Settings > Payment.

2. Click Connect Stripe.

3. You'll be redirected to Stripe's hosted onboarding.

4. Enter business details, tax ID, and bank info.

5. Complete identity verification (driver's license or passport upload).

6. Stripe redirects back to Chamberly with a success state.

7. The Settings > Payment page now shows Stripe connected with a green status.

• Online payment becomes available immediately.

• Chamberly subscribes to Stripe webhooks for your account so order statuses stay in sync.

• Your chamber dashboard shows real-time payment activity from Stripe.

• Complete identity verification quickly — Stripe holds payouts until verification finishes.

• Use a finance team email as the Stripe primary contact so payout notifications go to the right person.

• Enable Stripe two-factor auth for the underlying account.

Can I use an existing Stripe account?
Yes. During Connect onboarding, choose Sign in to existing Stripe account.

What if onboarding fails halfway?
Click Resume Stripe onboarding from Settings > Payment to pick up where you left off.

How long until payouts arrive?
Stripe's standard schedule is two business days for the first payout, then according to your chosen cadence.
