Supported Organization setupsPublic preview

Organizations support the following account setups: multiple standalone accounts, platforms, and connected accounts.

Multiple standalone accounts

It’s common to manage multiple Stripe accounts that represent different business lines, countries of operation, legal entities, and acquisitions.

After you add these accounts to an organization, you can search and download consolidated reports across your accounts without any changes to your Stripe integration. After you create an organization, you can add new business lines or add existing accounts.

Multiple platform accounts

If you have several platform accounts that correspond to different countries of operation or business lines, you can add them to an organization.

After you add your platforms to an organization, you can search for connected accounts under all your platforms, as well as data within each platform account.

Multiple connected accounts under a Connect platform

In certain cases, you might own multiple connected accounts under a platform. This commonly occurs in franchise groups where several franchises are under common ownership.

Even though your connected accounts are under a platform, you can still add them to an organization. This allows you to use the unified search and reporting across your accounts.

Multiple business lines represented as connected accounts

In some cases, you might have represented different business lines as connected accounts under one platform account, even though your business isn’t a traditional platform or marketplace. This is common if you want to consolidate payment integrations or clone payment methods stored in the platform to connected accounts.

You can create an organization that encompasses the platform account and connected accounts so that your team can benefit from unified search and reporting across all the accounts, without impacting your payment integrations.
