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

- You can also access this section by clicking “Account” and then “Business Information” from the Taskrabbit website.
