Stripe Connect Platform Audit
A full audit of your Connect platform across every major risk category, whether it is already moving money or about to launch.
Scope
The same review runs whether you are live or still building. Before launch it is cheaper to change the answers.
| Funds flow and charge type | Whether direct, destination, or separate charges fits your liability and your roadmap, and which one-way doors are already shut. |
|---|---|
| Account configuration | Who owns losses, who pays fees, and whether the controller settings match the business you actually run. |
| Onboarding and verification | How requirements get handled after an account is already live, and what your app gates on. |
| Money movement and payouts | Payout timing, holds, and how much of your own working capital is at risk in the current design. |
| Refunds, disputes, and losses | What your reversal paths actually do, and who absorbs a loss when one lands. |
| Fee model and revenue leakage | Whether the take rate you think you are earning is the one you are earning. |
| Webhooks and state integrity | Endpoint coverage, idempotency, and how far your own data can drift from Stripe's before anyone notices. |
| Failure modes and operations | What happens when a payout fails at 3am, and what is actually monitored. |
| Scale and roadmap risk | What breaks at ten times the accounts, in a second currency, or in a new country. |
Deliverables
- A written brief, every finding ranked by severity.
- A prioritised fix list.
- A 90-minute readout call with your team.
Terms of engagement
- Read-only access. Never a key that can write.
- Mutual NDA signed before access is granted.
- Credentials revoked on delivery.
- Nothing written, nothing exported.
I need to see the account itself, not a description of it. If you are live, that is a restricted API key with read permissions or a read-only member on your Stripe team. If you have not launched, it is the test-mode account and whatever integration code exists. Access is issued for the engagement window and extended only if you extend the engagement. If your security review needs something more specific, say so in your first message.
Pricing
$6,000 about two weeks
- Half on booking, half when the brief is delivered.
- Work starts within a week of the deposit clearing, usually two or three days.
