Once you’ve connected Stripe to Sage Accounting, your customers can make card payments from your emailed invoices. You can also take your customer’s card information and apply a payment to their invoice.
The Stripe account in Sage Accounting is different than your other bank accounts. You cannot connect it to a bank feed, import statements, transfer (in or out), or perform a manual reconciliation. You also can't delete Stripe activity.
Additionally, an updated Stripe balance shows in Sage Accounting. You can't adjust the balance by creating transactions. If you've not got the connections between Stripe and Accounting, you may need to do a manual journal to reconcile the fees to the customer invoice. Read more about using Stripe for card payments >
Once set up, you can also view transactions on the Stripe Dashboard in Sage Accounting. To access it, go to Banking then select View Dashboard on the Stripe account. Do not attempt to process Accounting transactions from the Stripe Dashboard.
Stripe is an Irish company, so the fees will include VAT. The fees will affect your VAT on Purchases nominal code (default 2201) and the T2 box on your VAT Return.
