Why did I receive this message?

At times, Stripe is unable to verify your business because wineries fall into the "violated business" category.

However, you can surpass this issue by providing Stripe with a few more details. 

Verification Steps

  1. Stripe needs you to open a new support thread.
    1. Through the link provided in your email, sign in to your Stripe account and click "Contact Support"Screen Shot 2022-11-23 at 8.02.35 AM
  2. Copy and paste the subject and message exactly as it is written below (into the Stipe Support help ticket)

Subject: My business has been flagged for closure and I've been selling wine for a long time & need to be reviewed please.

Message:

Hello,


I received an email that my Stripe account is still being terminated despite submitting all necessary information to prove WRITE YOUR BUSINESS NAME is a law abiding and legitimate company. I have been with Stripe for years and have never run into this issue before.

This is a huge time of year for us and we have many holiday email campaigns running to our customers. I am providing all necessary information to resolve this issue immediately.

Please let me know if you need any additional information on our end.

Thank you,
WRITE YOUR NAME
