    When Stripe is available

    Stripe is the payment processor connection currently shown in Your setup. Other processors shown there may be marked as coming later. Stripe setup can also be unavailable for a company or environment, and the app will show that status.

    Install Stripe from Your setup

    1. Open Your setup and choose Payment processors.
    2. Choose Install from Stripe and continue to Stripe.
    3. Sign in to Stripe, confirm the Stripe account that belongs with this company, and approve the requested connection in Stripe.
    4. Return to Median and wait for the status to refresh. The setup task shows Installed. Charges, refunds, fees and payouts, read only. On an accountant-prepared setup that displays Median status, wait for Connected (verified).
    5. Save the processor choices to complete the setup item.

    Connect from Integrations

    If you are managing existing connections, open Settings, choose Integrations, then choose Connect new or Connect New as displayed. Search all integrations for Stripe and choose Connect. The exact accounts available depend on your company access and Stripe authorization.

    If Stripe is not verified

    • If Stripe setup is unavailable, the app confirms that nothing was connected. Continue with other tasks and ask your accountant for the next step.
    • If you return to Median but the connection is still pending, wait for the status to refresh. Do not treat a return from Stripe alone as confirmation.
    • If the page reports a failed connection, retry from Payment processors or Settings > Integrations and share the displayed error with your accountant if it continues.
