You will need your business docs, like banking info, EIN, tax info, someone at your organization that is legally responsible for the money in, out, veracity of the info (like a Treasurer, Board Member… could even be you… ) You will need at least one human being on the account… they try not to be used as drug dealers and if the feds come knocking, they just need someone to rat out… \ud83d\ude42 (seriously, though, they will likely freeze your money on down the road if there isn’t at least one human being on a corporate account, so best to do that up front… )<\/p>\n

While we’re not in the business of dispensing legal or tax advice, we recommend that this account have reasonable controls in place and there is an official policy and procedure that folks there follow…<\/p>\n

  3. Sign into your account<\/li>\n
  4. Click on the Settings gear at the upper right
    \n\"\"<\/li>\n
  5. Complete all the business info on the lower left down to list through Tax Details… don’t need to do any of the branding stuff as that is for invoices and stuff.. UNLESS you will be using the account for more than tournaments… we don’t need that.<\/li>\n
  6. Once Stripe accepts and approves everything (might be a day or two, might be almost immediate, they may need additional documents, they’ll ask) then<\/li>\n
  7. Sign in (you should have set up 2FA by now, either to a cell phone (authenticator app suggested, just in case, so another admin member of your staff can access the account if needed)<\/li>\n
