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

- 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

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