How to disconnect a linked financial account

To disconnect a linked financial account on Stripe, merchants or platforms can visit the linked accounts settings page and remove the desired account. Businesses with a Stripe Express account can manage their financial accounts by logging into their Express account and visiting the settings page. It is recommended to consult with the merchant before disconnecting a financial account to understand the potential impact on the product experience.


Individuals and businesses may link their financial accounts with Stripe to receive payouts or access enhanced product experiences. More information about Linked Financial Accounts can be found here for our merchants and platforms and here for end users who linked their account to a business using Stripe (like an app or when checking out online).

You control your data.

  • If you are a business that has a Stripe Express account, you can manage your financial accounts at any time by logging into your Express account, visiting the settings page, and then viewing your Linked external accounts. Before you request to disconnect a linked financial account, we recommend reaching out to your platform who can explain how disconnection may affect your product experience with them. If you would like to request that your platform delete any copies of your data that they may have created on their systems, please contact your platform directly.
