Before you start

  • You already tried to connect Stripe and saw the setup fail or stop.

What this usually means

The Stripe account may still need verification, the wrong business login may have been used, or the connection flow may not have finished cleanly.

Fastest fix first

  1. 1

    Make sure you are signing into the correct Stripe account

    Double-check the Stripe email and business account you are authorizing. A second Stripe login is a very common cause here.

  2. 2

    Finish any missing Stripe verification steps

    Stripe may require business details, bank details, or identity verification before Zentive can complete the connection.

  3. 3

    Retry the connection after cleaning that up

    Once you know the Stripe account is complete and you are in the right profile, run the connection flow again from Zentive.

What usually causes the second failure

If it fails again, the most common reasons are unfinished Stripe onboarding, browser session mix-ups, or trying to connect the wrong business account.

What to send support

Send the exact Stripe error, the Stripe account email you used, and whether the Stripe account itself says setup is fully verified.
