# Bank account ownership letter

Download proof of account ownership for bank transfers.

Some customers might request additional assurance that the account they’re transferring money into is yours, because the account might be listed as owned by Stripe. To provide this assurance, you can generate a letter confirming your ownership of the account to the customer. In this letter, Stripe confirms that you’re the owner of the virtual bank account corresponding to the account details you have passed to that customer.

To download a letter confirming account ownership:

1. Go to the [Customers page](https://dashboard.stripe.com/customers) in the Dashboard.

2. Select the customer who has requested additional verification that you own the account.

3. Go to their cash balance details. This page shows the account details that the customer must use to pay you by bank transfer.

4. Click the button to download a confirmation letter in a PDF format with today’s date.
