"User must ensure that all information User provides to Stripe directly or through a Stripe Connect Platform is accurate and complete.Excerpt from Stripe's Connect Platform Agreement
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Accuracy obligations for information provided to payment processors intersect with anti-money laundering regulations, Know Your Customer requirements, and financial services licensing frameworks in all jurisdictions where Stripe operates. Inaccurate information may trigger account review or suspension procedures under applicable financial crime compliance frameworks. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The obligation extends to information submitted through the platform, creating a due diligence requirement for users to verify that their platform is accurately transmitting their information to Stripe. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: Financial services regulators in all covered jurisdictions impose accuracy requirements on payment service users as part of AML and KYC compliance. Heightened exposure exists in EU/EEA jurisdictions under the Payment Services Directive and AML directives, and in the US under FinCEN requirements. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Users should include provisions in their Platform Provider Agreement requiring the platform to accurately transmit user information to Stripe, and should establish processes to verify that information submitted through the platform matches the user's records. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should implement periodic verification that information held by Stripe about the user's account is accurate and current, particularly following any changes to business structure, ownership, or banking details.
