This process is completely free and can be done from the app itself by going to your profile wallet and linking your account. If you want to sign up outside of the app, you can do so by following this Stripe link < encoded_tag_closed > >https://stripe.com/es. There are no maintenance or subscription fees for the Stripe account; it’s completely free.
