Professional Module Settings

If the Professional module is active, an additional section appears:

Billing & Payments Settings

If the Billing & Payments add-on is active, a Billing & Payments section appears in Settings with:

Billing Mode

Controls how flight charges are applied when a member checks out of an aircraft.

ModeBehavior
Balance FirstCharge the member's pre-paid balance automatically. If the balance is insufficient, generate an invoice for the remainder. Best for flying clubs where members pre-pay.
Invoice OnlyAlways generate an invoice — never auto-debit the balance. Members pay via the invoice payment link. Best for flight schools that bill after each lesson.

To change the billing mode:

  1. Go to Settings → Billing & Payments.
  2. Select Balance First or Invoice Only.
  3. Click Save Changes.

Stripe Connect (Receive Payments)

Stripe Connect lets invoice payments and member top-ups deposit directly into your bank account.

To set up Stripe Connect:

  1. Go to Settings → Billing & Payments (or the Billing page).
  2. Click Connect Your Stripe Account.
  3. You'll be redirected to Stripe's onboarding form. You'll need:
    • Your business name and address
    • Bank account details (routing + account number)
    • Tax ID (EIN or SSN)
    • Business owner's date of birth and last 4 of SSN (for identity verification)
  4. Complete the form and submit.

After submitting: Stripe reviews new accounts before enabling payouts. This typically takes 1–3 business days. You'll see an "under review" status until Stripe approves your account. The status in Settings will update automatically once approved — you don't need to check back manually.

Until Stripe Connect is active, you can still send invoices and generate payment links. However, payments collected will not be routed to your bank account.

Checking your Stripe status:

Your Profile

The Full Name and Email fields at the top of Settings apply to your personal profile, not the organization. You can update your name at any time. For email changes, contact help@aloft360.com.
