Help with Stripe and other Payment Providers

Hi,
I'll try keeping it short.

I'm a non US person who recently opened an LLC and then followed it up by activating Stripe. For now, the account is activated, but I am worried that Stripe might deactivate me after I make my first payment. I used Payoneer for bank account. For address, I used a mail forwarding service.

I tried activating Transferwise, but they're asking for an actual lease agreement for proof of address. I cannot provide that right now, so I'm stuck with only Payoneer.

My business is content writing services. That's all. Nothing high risk or anything.

I always use a residential IP address before logging in to Stripe. The IP address changes every 24 hours, could that trigger red flags? I use 911.re as suggested to me by a user at Black Hat Forum.

Is there anything I could do to possibly trigger Stripe into deactivating me? I spent quite a fortune on that LLC, hosting, and other charges, I literally cannot afford to go down now.

i have same problem and i created 20 new accounts and same... after first suspended they have your ein,name,number,address and will constantly ban you.
it's better for you to switch to another payment processor if you can.

same here i have experienced the same problem!

Did you open up an LLC?

Did you open up an LLC? Or did you provide them with an individual EIN number?

It really all comes down to your business model. They have been shutting down Dropshippers left and right. If your store/service/product does not look like it's dropshipping, you will most likely be fine. If not, you most likely won't, given the experience of the last few months.

For signing up for Stripe, pretty much anything that doesn't look like Dropshipping will work. An agency, consulting, coaching, selling digital products, courses, events, even e-com as long as it looks branded.
