Modified on Wed, Jan 1 at 7:54 PM

To set up your Stripe Express account for instant payouts from a company, you need to: create a Stripe Express account, verify your identity, add a debit card eligible for Instant Payouts, and ensure the company you're working with has enabled Instant Payouts for their connected accounts; you may need to contact the company to confirm their Instant Payout capabilities and eligibility for your account.

Key steps:

Create a Stripe Express account:
Sign up for a Stripe account and choose the "Express" option to create a connected account under the company's Stripe platform.
Verify your identity:
Provide necessary documentation to verify your identity with Stripe.
Add a eligible debit card:
Access your Stripe dashboard and add a debit card that is supported for Instant Payouts.
Check company's Instant Payout settings:
Contact the company you're working with to confirm if they have enabled Instant Payouts for their connected accounts and if you are eligible.

Important points to consider:

Eligibility: Not all debit cards or bank accounts are eligible for Instant Payouts, so check with Stripe to confirm compatibility.
Daily limits: Companies may have daily limits on Instant Payout amounts, so check with them about payout restrictions.
Fees: Instant Payouts may incur a small fee depending on the company's setup.
