Stripe may need to verify that bank account information, such as the legal owner's name and account number, match the information on the user's Stripe account. Usually, submitting a bank account statement or a voided/canceled check satisfies this requirement.
If you are an individual, your bank account needs to be registered under the business owner name listed on your Stripe account.
If you are a sole proprietor, partnership, or single member LLC, your bank account needs to be registered under your legal business name, DBA name, or representative name of your Stripe account.
If you are an LLC, corporation, or non-profit, Stripe requires that the bank account be in the company’s legal business name or DBA.
Usually, this requirement can be satisfied by submitting one of the following documents:
US-based businesses:
Document containing owner name and account number from within the last year:
- Bank account statement
- Voided check
- Letter on bank letterhead
