KB Article #7024

OEC Payments in an integrated payments service in RepairLink for buyers and sellers.

Payments will be made according to the amount of the order in RepairLink. (Learn more about OEC's new Payments solution!)

OEC is partnering with Stripe to enable payment processing within RepairLink. Stripe is an industry leading payments provider who helps thousands of businesses facilitate payments in an eCommerce setting.

There are no one-time enrollment or monthly subscription fees for the OEC Payments service. OEC will simply charge a transaction fee of 2% per Carvana order.

To use this functionality, dealers will need to complete a set-up process where they will enroll for the Payments service and create a Stripe account that links to RepairLink. Dealers will also need to add a bank account to their Stripe account in order to received payouts for payments made for RepairLink orders. Please note that without enrolling for a Stripe account and adding a connected bank account, OEC will not be able to pay out funds for orders placed with your dealership.

Before enrolling for a Stripe account, the person enrolling via RepairLink should gather the following information from their Accounting Representative. An incomplete enrollment or unverified bank account will prevent payouts to your bank account from processing.

Also note that during the enrollment process an Authorized Representative will need to review and accept terms for the “Stripe Services Addendum” and the “Dealer Consolidated Billing Pricing Exhibit”. The Stripe Services Addendum is an addendum to the OEConnection Subscriber Agreement and the Dealer Consolidated Billing Pricing Exhibit discloses the fee for the OEC Payments service.
