When using #Liberapay to receive donations, I'm curious what data is shared with #Stripe.
- Does Stripe see the username and/or email address of the Liberapay account receiving donations?
I am hoping that Stripe cannot see this information and instead sees the ID number of the account or some other private identifier. I would like to protect my online identity from my bank and other entities that know my real-life legal identity.
I have not created a Stripe account yet, and I am curious about the process and data requirements.
- What data is required to create a Stripe account for an individual for the purpose of receiving donations?
- When creating a Stripe account, does Stripe require a photo ID for identity verification?
#Privacy is important to me because I'm trans and live in the USA.
Thanks to anyone who replies.
I found a step-by-step youtube video for creating a Stripe account and learned that there is a requirement to pay for phone service. So I will not be able to use Liberapay anyway.
