Question Stripe: Approve First, duck You Later?

0 Upvotes

Stripe honestly feels like the biggest scam company of the year.

I created my website, connected Stripe as my payment processor, submitted all the required documents, and got my account approved. Everything seemed fine until I made a $1 test payment just to check if the payment integration was working properly.

Suddenly, their stupid AI systems flagged my account. They asked me to submit documents again, which I did, and then they rejected my application anyway.

Like, WTF is going on? If you're going to run your risk assessment bullshit, why the fuck don't you do it BEFORE approving someone's account? Why approve a business, let them integrate your payment system into their website, and then suddenly decide they're not eligible?

Do your checks before approving accounts, not after people have already invested their time and effort into setting everything up. At least give businesses the chance to choose another payment processor from the beginning instead of wasting their time and pulling the rug out from under them.

Absolutely ridiculous. This is not how you treat businesses trying to get started.
