Contractor Onboarding

Stripe Connect Payroll

Onboarding sub-dealers and independent contractors involves a painful web of tax forms, identity verification, and banking setup. Stripe Connect Payroll automates the entire process—from KYC identity checks to W-9 collection, corporate banking routing validation, and ongoing compliance monitoring. New contractors complete a guided onboarding flow on their phone, and within minutes they're verified, compliant, and ready to receive payouts.
