What is Stripe Connect?
Stripe Connect is a product by Stripe that enables businesses to manage payments within a platform or marketplace. It's designed to handle complex payment flows and distribution of funds, making it easier for platforms to connect with their users financially.
Complex Payment Flows
Potentially, online payments are very complex. For instance, you may require that people sign in and provide their bank details; that alone will mean you need to have secure systems to give people peace of mind that their sensitive data will not be breached and stolen.
And that’s just the start. When money comes into the system, how is it distributed? And how do you guarantee that it arrives on time for all parties?
Stripe Connect gives you the flexibility and certainty to impose the structures and systems that suit you.
You can take 100% of the payment and distribute it to your partners. Alternatively, the money can go to them, and a cut is then taken and passed on to you.
These options can be configured to your requirements within Stripe Connect – and we can tweak the code if minor adjustments are needed.
What matters most, though, is that Stripe Connect is able to cope with complex payment flows and ensure the implementation of the system you want to use.
Scale Globally
The flexibility that embraces more than 135 currencies extends to the size and reach of your community or marketplace.
Wherever your customers or members are, Stripe Connect enables you to work closely with them – and to incorporate a payment system that operates smoothly and seamlessly.
Increasing numbers of businesses are recognising the benefits that accrue when you connect Stripe Connect. It’s a scalable, easily implemented way of managing your online payment system.
Integrates with others
Another compelling reason to deploy Stripe Connect is that it seamlessly integrates with and interacts with all the other products in the Stripe suite.
If you decide to build your own payment model and connect it to Stripe, that will require a significant amount of integration, which will cost you extra time and money.
Stripe Connect, meanwhile, connects instantly with all the back-end systems, ensuring that your logins and other functions are quick and intuitive and do not require separate management.
Multiple use cases
Versatility is at the core of Stripe Connect, which means it can be successfully deployed in a wide variety of contexts.
You may be in charge of a marketplace with a variety of individual and collective traders who wish to sell their wares online.
You may wish to distribute the money generated by sales in various ways. You may want to collect the funds centrally and take your commission before passing on the proceeds to your members.
Alternatively, you may want payments to go directly to those members, with a cut being taken automatically and passed on to you.
However you want your marketplace to operate, Stripe Connect can be configured to your satisfaction.
Similarly, if you run a subscription service or a membership organisation, you can dictate whether payments for events or services are channelled directly to you or to those members. The fact that you can deploy a Stripe Connect dashboard guarantees visibility and transparency in all your processes.
Launch quickly
One of the main benefits of using Stripe Connect to power your online payments is the speed with which it can be deployed.
This is despite the fact that administering payments through a wide variety of online payments could potentially be highly complex.
You may be running an online store or marketplace, overseeing various individuals and organisations selling their products through you.
If you use Stripe Connect, you can automate the various ways in which payments can be divided and distributed, with the bonus that all parties involved in the transaction can see exactly what they are due to receive.
Stripe Connect is a well-established system that can be implemented at remarkable speed.
Rather than a deployment process lasting several weeks, Stripe Connect can be installed – with all the bespoke requirements you need to function efficiently – within days.
This is one of the most compelling reasons why organisations prefer to use Stripe Connect rather than investing significant amounts of time and money in creating their own bespoke solutions.
We have had the great pleasure of working with Steadfast Collective for the last four months, and they have been a joy. Steadfast are super-efficient, they have a 'make it work' mentality, and they're proactive. Our next venture has gone to Steadfast without the need for a pitch.
