Important Considerations Before Switching:

• Payment methods for subscriptions will migrate but won't transfer back to Stripe if you switch again
• Sales history remains accessible
• Stripe account disconnects from Squarespace
• Customer checkout experience stays the same
• Bank account connection required for payments

How to Switch:

1. Open Finances panel
2. Click "Start using Squarespace Payments"
3. Review and accept terms
4. Start import process
5. Connect bank account for payments

Note: Account activation is immediate, but Stripe data import may take up to 10 days. Subscription payments continue through Stripe until import completion.

Account Management:

• Transaction fees and processing fees information available
• Business information and payment details can be edited
• Dispute management tools provided
• 1099-k form support included

Current customers will experience no disruption in service during the transition. A confirmation email will be sent once the import process is complete.
