This feature is available on all Goodshuffle Pro Plans.
The good news is: you don’t need your own Stripe Account! A custom Stripe account is created for you when you first register for Goodshuffle Pro. You’ll just need to confirm a few account details and complete a brief identity verification process.
As part of the "Know Your Customer" regulations, we need to collect some information from you to verify your account with Stripe. All payments handled in Goodshuffle Pro will be processed through this Stripe account and transferred directly into your bank.
Why Goodshuffle Uses Stripe
Stripe is the Payment Gateway that connects to your account and allows you to receive online payments from your clients. Goodshuffle Pro uses Stripe to process all card transactions.
Goodshuffle acts as the merchant and payment processor, enabling you to process transactions securely within the platform. This provides:
Streamlined reporting for your accountant or bookkeeper
Centralized management of payment settings
Secure transactions with verified, isolated Stripe accounts
Key Details About Your Stripe Profile
Stripe acts as the processing account for all transactions made through Goodshuffle.
The Stripe account tied to your profile is unique to Goodshuffle Pro, and cannot be merged with any other Stripe account.
Your account is verified based on your legal business name and EIN/SS4, which must match IRS records.
Note: If you're looking at your SS-4, be sure to use the name and address exactly as shown on the first line of the IRS document.
Where to Add or Update Your Bank Info
To ensure you're paid on time, update your bank info in your “Account” tab.
If you signed up but didn’t enter your bank info yet, your Stripe account will be created but held in Stripe until that information is added.

Stripe and Payment FAQs
Can I use my existing Stripe account?
No. Your Goodshuffle Stripe profile is distinct and specific to your business within our system. This ensures seamless integration, reporting, and compliance.
My legal business name changed—how do I update it?
You’ll need to update the business name and address directly through your Stripe interface in Goodshuffle Pro. These changes require Stripe verification.
Pro Tip: Always confirm that your business name and EIN match IRS records before submitting changes.
Why do payment processors need personal info?
Stripe and other payment processors collect this to verify your identity, prevent fraud, and comply with legal regulations.
