Stripe Identity Verification

Stripe, our third-party payments processor, legally requires its users to provide additional identity verification in certain circumstances. These circumstances can include: 

  • Meeting a specific earnings threshold called KYC (Know Your Customer) verification.
  • A yearly verification that’s required in certain countries during tax season. This verification is needed so Stripe can prepare tax reporting documents for the federal government.
  • Updates to Stripe's KYC (Know Your Customer) requirements that require account information to be re-verified.

You’ll know if you need to complete verification when you receive an email from us.

If you receive this email:

  • Do not reply to the email with the requested information. Instead, make sure you submit your information on the Taskrabbit website in the Tax Info section linked below.
  • Log into your Taskrabbit account
  • Go to the Business Information section of your account to provide the requested information and complete your identity verification.
    • You can also access this section by clicking “Account” and then “Business Information” from the Taskrabbit website.

You’ll need to provide:

  • Date of Birth (Day, Month and Year)
  • Social Insurance Number
  • Front and Rear Scan of their Government Issued ID

Accepted IDs are:

  • Passport
  • Driver license
  • Identification card
    • Alberta
    • Nova Scotia
    • Saskatchewan
    • Nunavut
  • Identity card
    • British Columbia
  • Carte d'identité
    • Manitoba
    • New Brunswick
    • Nova Scotia
    • Northwest territories
  • Carte d'identification
    • New Brunswick
    • Newfoundland and Labrador
    • Prince Edward Island
  • Carte-photo
    • Ontario
  • Carte d'identité générale
    • Yukon
  • National ID (photo card)
  • Resident permit ID (carte de résident)
  • Certificat de citoyenneté canadienne

When providing a copy of your ID, make sure the ID is valid and the image is clear, in color, shows all 4 corners of the ID, and is uploaded in a JPEG or PNG file format. If there are any image quality issues, your document may be rejected and you’ll need to wait 48 hours before you're able to re-submit your document(s).

Keep in mind—If you don’t complete this identity verification, your payments may be paused until you’ve provided the requested information.
