How do I set up a bank account to take contributions in Action Network?

When you create your first Fundraising page using Action Network, it will ask you to configure either WePay or Stripe. If your Stripe’s base currency is £, then your Fundraiser forms will offer GBP (Example: https://actionnetwork.org/fundraising/give-to-the-green-party).

Unfortunately, the reporting on the graph in the home dashboard cannot be configured to feature a different currency than USD. 

You must have a Stripe or WePay account to take payments in Action Network. 

Create a Stripe account: https://dashboard.stripe.com/register
