Learn how ROOTS integrates with Stripe Connect to handle your club's payments securely and seamlessly.
Create Your Club Account TodayFollow these six steps to connect your club to Stripe and start accepting payments.
Register your club on the rootsadmin.com platform. Complete your profile, including business details, bank account information, and compliance documents. This is the foundation for enabling secure payment processing through your club.
Stripe requires identity verification for all connected accounts. You will need to provide identification documents and verify your club's legal status. This ensures compliance with financial regulations and protects your club and its members.
Link your club's bank account to receive payouts from Stripe. Funds from membership fees, event registrations, and other payments will be transferred directly to your bank account on a regular schedule. You can configure payout frequency in your dashboard.
Configure which payment methods your club accepts. Stripe supports credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and bank transfers. Choose the options that work best for your club's community to maximise convenience for guardians and members.
Create your membership tiers and event registration fees within the ROOTS platform. Set pricing, payment schedules, and any early-bird discounts. The system will automatically generate payment links and track all transactions for you.
Once everything is configured, activate your payment system and start collecting fees. Guardians will receive payment links via email or the ROOTS messaging system. Track all payments in real-time through your financial dashboard. Our support team is available to help at every step.
Stripe Connect is a payment platform that allows ROOTS to process payments on behalf of your club. When a guardian pays for a membership or event, the payment is processed securely through Stripe and the funds are deposited directly into your club's bank account, minus the transaction fee.
ROOTS charges a 3.5% transaction fee per payment processed through the platform. This covers Stripe's processing fees and the ROOTS platform fee. There are no hidden charges or monthly fees for payment processing beyond your annual ROOTS subscription.
Payments are typically deposited into your bank account within 2-7 business days, depending on your payout schedule. You can configure your payout frequency (daily, weekly, or monthly) in your Stripe dashboard. All transactions are visible in real-time on your ROOTS financial dashboard.
Through Stripe Connect, your club can accept payments via credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), Apple Pay, Google Pay, and bank transfers. This gives your club's members maximum flexibility when making payments.
