Get paid with Stripe
Clients pay invoices through Stripe, and the money goes straight to your own Stripe account. Connect it once in Settings › Payments. Only owners and admins can open this page.
Connect Stripe
- Open Settings › Payments.
- Under Stripe payments, choose Connect with Stripe.
- Sign in to Stripe, or create an account, and finish Stripe's setup. Stripe asks for your business and bank details.
- You're sent back to Thriveific. The card shows Connected once Account details submitted and Charges enabled are both done.
If you left Stripe's setup halfway, the card shows Onboarding incomplete: choose Resume onboarding.
Until Stripe is connected, your clients see "Online payment isn't available for this invoice" and are asked to contact you to pay.
How clients pay
Your client chooses Pay on their estimate or invoice link and pays in Stripe's checkout. Thriveific records the payment on the invoice as soon as Stripe confirms it, and the client gets a receipt.
Your client sees the payment methods you've turned on in your Stripe dashboard. To take bank (ACH) payments, turn on US bank account in Stripe. A bank payment shows as Bank payment processing for a few days until it clears.
Card and bank fees are Stripe's standard rates, charged by Stripe.
Public payment page
For a one-time payment that isn't on an invoice, share your Public payment page, also in Settings › Payments. It has a link and a QR code. Your client enters their name, email, the Amount (USD) and a message, then pays through Stripe.
Disconnect
Choose Disconnect under Stripe payments. Clients can't pay online until you connect again. Your Stripe account and its money are untouched.
