While a Stripe Express account does exist to power yourWooPayments account, it is not possible to log into Stripe.com with that account directly. Instead, you need to access the Stripe Express dashboard via your WordPress site’s dashboard.

Note the account email of your WooPayments Stripe Express account, which you can find by logging into the Stripe Express dashboard.
