# Stripe & PayPal

When you connect Stripe or PayPal, Kick pulls in your payment transactions and automatically splits them into gross revenue and fees - so you can see exactly what you earned and what you paid in processing costs, without any manual work.

### Cash App, Venmo, and others

Cash App and Venmo connect through Plaid like a standard bank account. Go to **Accounts** → **Add account** and search for the institution.

For payment processors that don't support Plaid, use the [Universal Importer](/setting-up/universal-importer.md) to upload transactions manually.

### Transfers from your processor to your bank

When your processor pays out to your bank account, both sides of that movement need to be matched as a transfer - otherwise Kick will count the deposit as income and double your revenue.

Kick handles this automatically for connected accounts. For recurring payouts (like daily Stripe deposits), you can also create a [Transfer Rule](/common-workflows/rules.md) to ensure matching is always applied.
