What happens if I don’t connect to Stripe?

You will be unable to receive your funds when customers order from you.

How often will Stripe transfer funds?

This depends on which country you live in. If you are in the UK, Stripe will automatically transfer your funds 7 days after receiving payment. If you are in the USA, Stripe transfers funds in just 2 days (Stripe are working to reduce the transfer time for UK and some other European countries).
