Company governance
Decision Queue
One company-wide register for choices that need evidence, discussion and an accountable conclusion. Each item states the actual question, a recommended starting point, what evidence closes it and the source that created it.
Frame
Agree on the exact decision—not merely the surrounding topic.
Challenge
Review the recommendation, risks, alternatives and missing evidence.
Decide
Name the accountable decision-maker, decision and effective date.
Propagate
Update the source document, roadmap, owner and dependent work.

Choose the payment and funds-flow model
When does the Registry collect funds, hold funds, pay Providers or simply record an external payment?
Why this matters
Stripe, large bank payments, Provider payouts, refunds and marketplace obligations change legal, tax, KYC and reconciliation responsibilities.
Recommended starting point
Do not assume merchant-of-record status. Map each transaction type with counsel and payments specialists, support bank-based and recorded manual payments, then configure Stripe accordingly.
Evidence required to close
Counsel-approved funds-flow diagrams, Stripe account model, payout/refund rules and reconciliation tests.
