From the guide: Use your own Paystack or Stripe account for card and transfer payments

By default, card and bank-transfer payments taken in Business Sensor go through the shared Business Sensor Paystack account and are paid out to you from there. If you already have your own Paystack business, you can connect it instead. Customers then pay your business directly, the money settles into your own bank account on Paystack's normal schedule, and the Business Sensor platform fee no longer applies to those payments.

Stripe works the same way, with one difference: there is no shared Stripe account, so Stripe is only available once you connect your own. Stripe payments always use a hosted payment page (QR code or link), there is no bank-transfer option, and the webhook is registered for you automatically.

Connecting is safe to do during business hours: nothing changes for your cashiers until you click Activate at the very end, and you cannot click it until every check has passed.
