Stripe’s payout timing and what to expect for your first transaction.
When you first sign up for Stripe, your initial payout may take 7–14 business days to process. This is due to Stripe’s advanced fraud protection and security checks designed to keep your business safe.
However, most users report receiving their first payout within 5 days.
🔄 Ongoing Payouts
After your first payment is successfully processed, future payouts are typically deposited into your account within 2–3 business days.
💡 Stylist Tip: Speed Things Up
To avoid waiting during your first real client transaction, some stylists have processed a small $1 test payment themselves.
This helps kick off Stripe’s verification process earlier, so that when you take your first actual payment, your payout delay is avoided.
