Account Users
Secure access and permissions to Collect without sharing Stripe credentials.
Need to give people access to Collect for Stripe?
You could make them all administrators in Stripe, share your Stripe credentials with them, or try to connect your Stripe account on every single device they use. All of those options are either risky, tedious, or both.
Account Users give you a better option: secure access to Collect, not to your Stripe Dashboard.
What Are Account Users?
Account Users are individual logins you create for anyone who needs to use Collect. Each user signs in with their own email address and password (or a secure, one-time magic link) instead of using your Stripe credentials.
Creating an Account User:
- Does not provide access to your Stripe Dashboard
- Only grants access to Collect features, settings, and processes that utilize your Stripe data
- Can be revoked or restricted by you at any time
Security and Control
As soon as you create a new Account User, they receive an email prompting them to set a password. From there, you stay in control:
- Add or remove users at any time from the web dashboard
- Adjust permissions per user to match their role
- Keep your Stripe credentials private while still letting your team accept payments
No Extra Cost, No Limits
There is no additional fee for using Account Users.
- Create as many Account Users as you need
- Have any number of Account Users signed in at once
- Pay nothing extra for adding or managing users
Managing Account Users in the Dashboard
The web dashboard gives you a clear overview of every Account User, along with their status and permissions.

When you add a new user, you simply enter their email address, choose their permissions, and send the invite.

How to Get Started
- Create your own Collect Account in the web dashboard using any valid email address.
- Connect your Stripe account when prompted to establish yourself as a Stripe administrator.
- Go to the Users section and click Add User.
- Your new user will receive a private email to set their password.
- That email address and password can be used to sign in to the Collect mobile app using Collect Account Sign-In on the main screen.
- The user can sign in with their password or request a secure, one-time magic link to tap and sign in instantly.
You can also sign into the Collect mobile app as an administrator using the same Collect Account credentials you created in step 1.
