Before you can accept live payments, your business goes through a short verification review (KYB). Test mode needs no review, so you can build and test the full flow first, then submit for review when you are ready to go live.
The fastest approvals happen when your product is already live, your legal pages are visible, and your support email matches the one shown on your website.

Approval checklist

Review process

How long does it take?

Reviews are usually completed within a day. You will get an email the moment the review is complete or if we need a change.

What happens after the review?

  • Approved: your account can start accepting live payments.
  • Changes requested: fix the flagged items, then resubmit from the same place you started.

Where do I start?

Open Go live and start Verify your business, or go to Payments → Payout account. Verification and payout setup are part of the same go-live flow.
Go live checklist with Verify your business in review

The Go live tracker: run a test payment, verify your business, then add a payout account.

What information is needed?

  • Your legal name, or your business entity name
  • Your product name and its website URL
  • A short description of your business and how you operate
  • A description of the products you intend to sell
  • Your country of tax residence

Common reasons for a change request

  1. Support email mismatch: the email in your business details does not match the one on your website.
  2. Website not reachable: your site is down, password-protected, or returning errors during review.
  3. Missing legal pages: your website needs a Privacy Policy and Terms.
  4. False information: fake reviews, testimonials, or inflated counts on your website.
  5. Product not ready: if your product is not live yet, keep using Test mode until it is.
