Cloaking usually means masking your site’s true purpose from payment processors, but it’s risky (and against most TOS). Better to play it safe: keep transactions transparent, use clear billing descriptors, and avoid sudden spikes in activity. Double-check your biz complies with Stripe’s policies. If you’re in a gray area, maybe chat with a dev who’s navigated this before.

What is your niche? If you are dealing with black hat industries, you need to cloak your website to prevent Stripe to find out you are involved in unsupported businesses. This will protect your account and avoid bans.
I'd say its whitehat, i have someone elses running the same business with stripe and they've been fine. Anymore advice?
If you use stripe against the TOS, you will be liable to being banned which sooner or later. One should also be willing to accept his fate when it is fannaly banned when used for blackhat purposes

Well, if it's a white hat industry, you should be fine. Just make sure to hide your fingerprints. Do not use IDs, domains, bank accounts, phone numbers or emails previously linked to banned accounts

Cloaking is just part of the job. You need to be able to manage the accounts, for example warm them up, disconnect them when charge back ratios hit a certain level. You should look for some software that will help you do this in order to keep your accounts running for longer.

Warm it up slow, don’t push volume too fast. Use clean, dedicated infrastructure (VMs, fresh IPs, etc.), and don’t mix accounts. Make sure billing descriptors are solid and match the product. If you're using stealth banking, make sure names match what Stripe expects. Also, handle disputes fast - that’s what usually kills accounts.
