Press Setup to start the Stripe Connect process.
Enter your email address and a phone number. Make sure this is a cell phone as you will need to put in the code it's going to text you in the next step. Also Note: If you already have a Stripe Connect account, simply log in using your existing username and password to continue. This will allow you to seamlessly complete the process without needing to create a new account.
Next you'll need to enter:

The business name you entered when you signed up for Trellus will appear in the Business Name field. If it's different than your Legal business name please enter that name along with your EIN (or social security number) and the registered business address.
Verify your personal details. The person filling this out must be authorized to sign on the behalf of the business.
Once you press continue, you'll have to select a bank account type for where to send your payouts. Enter your bank account details and authorize Stripe Connect to link your account for payouts. If you'd rather enter your account credentials manually, press Enter Bank Account Credentials instead (see the arrow below)
