Set up Stripe Connect
Connect Stripe so your organization can receive payouts from ticket sales.
Motivz uses Stripe Connect Express so ticket revenue can be paid out to your organization's bank account. Setup is hosted by Stripe — you do not need a separate Stripe account before starting.
You only need Stripe for paid tickets sold through Motivz. Free RSVP events and events with an external ticket link do not require payouts setup.
