The easiest way to collect registration fees and other payments from your participants is to use Online Payments. Payments are processed securely through Stripe and deposited directly into the bank account connected to your Stripe account.
For new Stripe accounts, the first payout is typically delayed by about 7 business days. After the first payout, funds from new payments generally become available on a rolling basis according to Stripe's payout timing for your country. For Canadian accounts, this is typically about 3 business days. Stripe can then send your available balance to your bank automatically based on your payout schedule, such as daily, weekly, or monthly.
Your exact payout timing and estimated payout dates are available in your Stripe Dashboard.

Connect your Stripe account
Before registrants can pay online, you must connect a Stripe account to your event.
Follow these instructions to connect a Stripe account to your event.
Until Stripe is connected:
Fees that include the Online payment mode will show the online payment option as Unavailable at checkout.
Fees that support only Online payments will not appear on your published registration form.
Offer multiple ways to pay
A fee can support Online payments by itself, or you can combine it with Offline and On-site payment modes to let registrants choose how they would like to pay during checkout.
For example, you could allow a registrant to pay immediately by credit card, mail a check, or pay when they arrive at the event.
