Why is FishingBooker switching to Stripe Connect?

    Stripe is a renowned company that provides a comprehensive set of tools for online businesses to handle payment processing.

     

    Why the change?

     

    This decision follows our payment provider Braintree's announcement in 2023, regarding the shutting down of their Braintree Marketplace product. Recognizing Stripe as a market leader in payment processing and with their product, Stripe Connect, serving as the equivalent to Braintree Marketplace, we made the strategic move to seamlessly transition to Stripe.

     

    Why should you join Stripe?

     

    If you have Online Payments and FishingBooker Direct enabled, migrating to Stripe is essential for you to continue enjoying the features and for us to be able to send you the funds from these bookings.

     

    How to migrate?

     

    To ensure a smooth migration, you can  follow the prompts on your Payments and Payouts page. 

     

    Clicking the "Set up Stripe account" button initiates a straightforward process where you'll be prompted to input your business and banking details. Once you've completed these steps, you're all set.

    Important note: Partner responsibility for setup

     

    It's important to note that setting up a Stripe account is a task you need to perform individually and cannot be done on your behalf. However, our dedicated Support Team is at your service to assist and answer any questions you may have throughout each step of this process.
