# Digits Connections: Stripe

***

### How to Connect Stripe

To connect your Stripe account to Digits:

1. Click **Connections** in the left-hand menu.
2. Click the **Revenue** tab.
3. Locate the **Stripe** and click Connect.
4. Log in to your **Stripe account** (or have someone with access log in) and approve the permissions.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** If you use Stripe for more than one business or account, double-check you’re connecting the **right Stripe account** before you approve access.
{% endhint %}

***

### What Happens After Connection

Once connected, Digits will automatically:

* Import your full Stripe transaction history.
* Start analyzing and posting those transactions into your books.
* ✨ Automatically categorize transactions and assign customers or other parties.
* Begin a frequent sync to keep Stripe data in Digits up to date.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note:** The first import may take a while if you have a long Stripe history or a high volume of payments.
{% endhint %}

### What Transaction Data Syncs from Stripe

Digits syncs **Stripe balance transactions** (the behind-the-scenes records Stripe uses to track money moving in and out), including types like:

* `payout`
* `payout_failure`
* `charge`
* `payment`
* `stripe_fee`
* `refund`
* `payment_refund`
* `topup`
* `adjustment`

If a fee or transaction type doesn’t sync automatically, you can manually add it in **Ledger → New Transaction**.

### Frequently Asked Questions

<details>

<summary>Why don’t I see all invoices from Stripe in Digits?</summary>

Only invoices paid *through Stripe* are synced to Digits.

If a payment was processed outside of Stripe, the invoice won’t appear automatically — manually enter it in **Ledger → All Transactions.**

</details>

<details>

<summary>What data does Stripe sync into Digits?</summary>

Digits imports your Stripe balance transactions — including payments, refunds, fees, and payouts — directly into the Ledger for automatic categorization and reconciliation.

</details>

<details>

<summary>Does Digits sync Stripe Capital loan withholdings?</summary>

No. Stripe does not report Stripe Capital loan withholdings (paydown events) to Digits, so they won't appear automatically in your Ledger. To keep your loan balance and gross revenue accurate, we recommend exporting your Stripe Capital transactions from Stripe as a CSV and importing them manually into Digits. From there, you can categorize them to the appropriate liability account.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.digits.com/business-connections/stripe.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
