Access to the Stripe dashboard — your account stays yours
A direct link to your Stripe dashboard, the only way into an Express account.
The problem
A Stripe account created in Express mode has no conventional credentials. There is no password to remember, which is comfortable — until the day you go looking for your dashboard and no sign-in page will have you.
And yet that is where what you will need lives: the breakdown transaction by transaction, the receipts, manual refunds, the evidence in a chargeback, and your bank details.
Access therefore has to go through the software that created the account.
Without Kagenda
You try to open your Stripe dashboard. No login screen will accept you: that account has no password.
With Kagenda
A link from Kagenda logs you in directly, with no credentials to dig up.

Frequently asked questions
Why can I not sign in directly at stripe.com?
Because an Express account has no password of its own. The link generated from Kagenda is the route Stripe provides for this kind of account.
What can I do there that I cannot do in Kagenda?
Refund by hand, respond to a chargeback, change your bank details, download your statements. Kagenda shows the essentials; Stripe is where you act on the detail.
Can the link be shared?
No, it is for you and lasts a limited time. It must not be passed on, since it opens your payment account.
