Setting Up Stripe Connect for Payouts
Last updated July 28, 2026
Stripe Connect is what moves money from processed orders into your bank account. Setting it up is one of the most important onboarding steps — until it's complete, you can't receive payouts.
You'll need your bank account details on hand before you start.
Audience: New Big Frog users configuring payments
Estimated time: 10 minutes
Step 1 — Open the Payouts tab
- From your dashboard, click the Payouts tab.
- You'll see your payouts overview, including payouts to your bank.
If you've started setup before but didn't finish, the button will read Resume Setup instead of starting fresh. Either way, click it to continue.
Step 2 — Confirm your country
Select the country where your business banks — for most users this is the United States, which is already selected by default.
Then continue to the next screen.
Step 3 — Complete Stripe's onboarding
You'll be handed off to Stripe to finish the process.
- Enter your email address to begin.
- Follow Stripe's prompts through each step.
- Connect your bank account when prompted.
Stripe collects the business and banking information it needs to verify your account and deposit funds.
Step 4 — Confirm setup is complete
When you finish Stripe's flow, you'll be returned automatically to your account. The Payouts tab will now show your Stripe Connect status as Complete.
Once connected, payouts from processed orders deposit directly into your linked bank account.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | What to do |
|---|---|
| Button says "Resume Setup" | You started earlier and stopped partway — click it to pick up where you left off |
| Status still isn't Complete | Stripe may need additional verification info; return to the Payouts tab and resume |
| Wrong country selected | Contact support before continuing, as country affects payout setup |
Next steps
With Stripe Connect active, order revenue flows to your bank automatically. You're ready to move on to the rest of your account configuration.
