Stripe Onboarding
Stripe Connect links your KALYIX Tip profile with payment processing and payouts. You start the flow in KALYIX, complete the information requested by Stripe, and then return to KALYIX.
Where You Start
Open Account in KALYIX. There you find Payment Setup with Stripe status, the payments toggle, and Stripe actions.

KALYIX Modal For New Stripe Account
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Display Name | Name used to create the Stripe account. |
| Email for Stripe account creation. | |
| Country | Country of the Stripe account. This affects which Stripe requirements apply. |
| Phone | Optional field. If set, it is passed to Stripe. |
| Legal confirmation | You confirm that you have read Stripe Connect terms and Stripe privacy policy. |
These KALYIX fields only start the Stripe process. The actual review and all further required data are handled by Stripe.
In Stripe
Stripe asks for the data required for your account, country, and payment/payout capability. This can include personal data, business data, bank details, identity verification, or tax information.
KALYIX does not define which fields you must complete here. Stripe shows required fields and errors directly in Stripe onboarding.
Back To KALYIX
After the Stripe step, you return to KALYIX or open Account again.
Then check:
| Check | Expected |
|---|---|
| Stripe Status | Connected |
| Account ID | Stripe Account ID is shown. |
| Payments toggle | Can be enabled. |
| Stripe Dashboard | Button is available when a dashboard URL exists. |
Only when Stripe is connected and payments are active can a Tip page with a Support Box accept real payments.
Enable Payments
The Payments active toggle allows checkout on your Tip page.
When you enable it, KALYIX checks whether Stripe is connected. Without a Stripe connection, KALYIX blocks activation with the message Connect Stripe first, then enable.
Support Box And Live Page
If your page uses a Support Box or checkout tokens, it needs active payments. KALYIX blocks going live when checkout is active but Stripe is not connected or payments are not active.
Typical messages:
| Message | Meaning |
|---|---|
Checkout is active, but payments are not active. Please connect Stripe and enable payments. | The page contains checkout content, but payments are not ready. |
Support Box is active. Please connect Stripe and enable payments first. | The Support Box is on the page, but Stripe/payments are missing. |
Connect Stripe first, then enable | The payments toggle was enabled before Stripe was connected. |
Stripe Dashboard
When Stripe is connected, you can open Stripe directly via Stripe Dashboard. There you manage payouts, Stripe reviews, account details, and other Stripe-specific topics.
Disconnect Stripe
Disconnect Stripe removes the Stripe connection in KALYIX and disables payments. A page with an active Support Box can no longer accept payments until Stripe is connected again and payments are active again.
After Onboarding
After a successful connection:
- Check Account.
- Enable
Payments active. - Add or check the Support Box in the Page Editor.
- Publish the page.
- Switch live in Studio.
- Run a test payment or checkout test.
- Check entries under Payments.
The checkout flow is described under Understanding checkout. Fees and final values are described under Understanding payments.
