Important Note: Business Hub management can only be done on the web and is not supported on Mobile.

Before getting started, you'll need to connect a Stripe Express account to accept payments in Bridge. This allows you to link subscriptions or one-time charges to a Product Page, or manually charge clients securely.

In this article, you’ll learn how to:

  • Access payments in Bridge

  • Connect your bank account or debit card

  • Understand fees and payouts


Accessing Payments

You can access the Business Hub in two ways:

  1. From your home screen by clicking Business Hub in the top right corner of the Homepage.

  2. Open the settings dropdown (click your name) and select Business Hub.

Bridge Tip: All admins in your organization can access payments. However, only one bank account can be connected per organization.


Connecting Your Bank Account or Debit Card

Bridge uses Stripe to process payments. All financial information you provide is securely stored in Stripe. Learn more about Stripe’s security here.

To set up payments:

  1. Click Set Up Payments

  2. Choose to create a new Stripe account or connect an existing one

  3. Follow the prompts to add your bank account or debit card

  4. Wait up to 48 hours for Stripe to review and approve your account

You can check your account status anytime in the Payments tab.
