Understanding guide bank account status

See whether guides are ready for payouts. Track which bank accounts are linked to Stripe and ensure payments run smoothly in Brindlechute.

Confirm your guides are set up to receive payments automatically through Brindlechute.

The Bank Account Status in your guide roster shows whether each guide has completed their payout setup in the Brindlechute Guide App.


1. Where to Check Bank Account Status

From your Outfitter Dashboard, click Guides in the left sidebar.

You’ll see your guide roster with guide names listed vertically on the left.
Across each guide’s row, the following details appear horizontally:

  • Payment Method (Automatic or Manual)

  • Date Added

  • Sync Status

  • Bank Account Status

  • Active / Inactive Status

At the top of this view, you can toggle between Active and Inactive guides.


2. Bank Account Status Indicators

Each guide’s Bank Account Status will display one of two colors:

  • Red – Not Connected
    The guide has not yet linked a bank account. They must open their Guide App and connect to Stripe in order to receive automatic payouts.

  • Green – Connected
    The guide’s bank account is active and linked through Stripe.
    They’re ready to receive automatic payouts from trips assigned to them.


3. Fixing a Missing Connection

If a guide shows Not Connected:

  • Ask them to open the Brindlechute Guide App

  • Tap Me at the bottom right

  • Tap Bank Settings

  • Complete the Connect to Stripe setup

Once their bank account is linked, the status will update to green, confirming they’re ready for automatic payments.


4. Important: Stripe Setup Alone Is Not Enough

A guide’s bank account will not show as connected if they have set up Stripe but have not connected to your outfitter.

The guide must:

  • Open the Guide App

  • Go to the Outfitters tab

  • Connect to your outfitter
