Treasury Disclosures

Withholden is not a bank, chartered financial institution, money transmitter, escrow agent, trust company, payroll provider, employer of record, or tax authority.

Withholden partners with Stripe Payments Company (opens in a new tab) for money transmission services and account services with funds held at Fifth Third Bank, N.A., Member FDIC.

When the app refers to a tax savings account, tax reserve, reserve, or similar balance, it means a Withholden tax-planning feature built on a Stripe Treasury financial account. It is not a traditional bank account, deposit account, checking account, or personal savings account.

Funds set aside for taxes are not paid to the IRS or any state tax authority unless and until you authorize a supported payment and that payment is processed and accepted by the recipient.

You will not receive interest, earnings, investment returns, or rewards on tax savings balances unless a separate written disclosure says otherwise. The service is not a general-purpose wallet, person-to-person transfer product, remittance product, bill-payment product, or stored value product.

By opening or using the account, you also agree to the Stripe Services Agreement (opens in a new tab), Stripe Treasury connected-account terms (opens in a new tab), Stripe Connected Account Agreement (opens in a new tab), and Stripe Issuing Accountholder Terms (opens in a new tab).
