Stripe Connect+ Setup Process (the latest version)

To unlock all the ThriveCart Pro+ features, you’ll need to setup the latest version of Stripe, Stripe Connect+ as your payment processor. Here’s how:

  1. Set up Stripe Connect+
    • Go to your profile at the top of the screen.
    • Go to Settings, then click on View Integrations, and select Stripe Connect+.

  2. Log in to Stripe
    • Click “Connect your Stripe account to ThriveCart.”

    • Wait for the Stripe interface to load.
  3. Verify Your Stripe Account:
    • Use the email address associated with your existing Stripe account
    • Click “Submit,” enter your password, and input the verification code sent by Stripe.
    • Verify your identity as prompted.
  4. What happens if Stripe doesn’t recognize my old account when creating a Stripe Connect+ account?
    • Check your email is tied to your existing Stripe account
    • In limited cases, Stripe will require you to verify and enter your company information again
    • In other cases you will be asked to provide updated KYC (Know Your Client) information
  5. Select Your Business:
    • Choose your existing business account (no need to create a new one).
  6. Skip Unrelated Features:
    • Stripe may present additional features unrelated to the integration. Skip these by selecting “No thanks” or “Not right now.
  7. Complete and Confirm:
    • Review the information entered, click “Agree and Submit.”
    • Your Stripe account is now connected to the new version.
  8. Enable Stripe Connect+ on Individual Products
    • After setting up the latest version of Stripe, enable it for individual products:
      • Go to Products.
      • For each product, click Edit, then navigate to Processors.
      • Deactivate Stripe Enhanced and activate Stripe Connect+.
      • Click Save.
    • At this point, all new transactions for these products will be processed via Stripe Connect+. Any ThriveCart Pro+ specific features (e.g., multiple order bumps) will be available for those products. Note that some ThriveCart Pro+ features are global, while others are product-specific and will only apply to products where Stripe Connect+ has been enabled.
    • Please Note:
      • Subscriptions purchased before enabling Stripe Connect+ will continue to process via the previous payment processor.
      • Subscriptions purchased after Stripe Connect+ is enabled will be processed using the latest version of Stripe.
  9. When you’re ready to unlock the Pro+ features on all of your products, you can enable Connect+ on all products at the push of a button.

    Enable Pro+ features on All Products
    • Navigate to Settings -> View Integrations, and then click on View Settings for the Stripe Connect t+ integrations. There you’ll see a teal button labeled Upgrade all your products to Stripe Connect+
    • Select this button and follow the prompts to enable Stripe Connect+ across all your products, unlocking Pro+ functionality

How Stripe Connect+ Payouts work:

  • After you have created a Connect+ sub account, your first payout will be subject to a 7 day hold, as Stripe treats the Connect+ sub account as a new account for payout purposes.
  • Day 1 begins with your first transaction on the new sub account.
  • Any transactions within the first ~6.5 days will be rolled up into the first payout at T+7.
  • From there all additional payouts will occur at the typical 2 day interval.
