Getting paid

Payouts to your bank with Stripe Express.

You don't need a registered business. After the first person pays, add your name, a few details so Stripe can confirm it's you, and your bank account. From then on, each payment goes to your bank on the Friday after a 7-day hold (14 days in your first 60 days).

Questions organizers ask

Quick answers before you share the link.

What is the best way to collect money from a group online?

Send one Idle link. Tell it what you're collecting for and how much, and Idle builds a link with a pay button and a list of who's paid. Everyone pays by card from the group chat, and the money goes to your bank on the Friday after a 7-day hold.

Is there an app to collect money from a group?

You don't need one. An Idle link opens in any phone's browser, so nobody has to download anything or sign up for a payment app to pay you.

How do I collect membership dues online?

Tell Idle the dues amount and the due date, like “Collect $25 monthly member dues for the tennis club, due the 1st of each month.” Share the link with members, and each payment lands next to their name.

How do I get members to pay dues?

Make it one tap. Members pay by card from the link you share, and you can see who hasn't paid yet, so a quick nudge in the group chat is all it takes.

How do I collect money for a group gift?

Tell Idle who the gift is for and how much each person is chipping in. Share the link, watch the total grow, and get the money in your bank to buy the gift.

How do I collect money for a group trip?

Make an Idle link for the deposit or each person's share. Everyone pays by card, and you see at a glance who's covered and who still owes.

How do I collect money for a class or family reunion?

Tell Idle the reunion, the cost per person, and the deadline. Share the link with the class or family group, and every payment shows up in one list.

How do I collect money for fantasy football?

Make an Idle link for the league buy-in and drop it in the league chat. Everyone pays by card, and you can see who's in before the draft.

How do I pool money with friends?

Tell Idle what you're pooling for, like a birthday dinner or a cabin, and how much each person owes. Share the link, and everyone pays by card without needing the same payment app.
