Domain verification during account application
Your platform partners with Stripe for secure payments.
You may be contacted to confirm that you own the website connected to your account, or understand why you don’t have ownership over your website, to ensure the products or services you're selling there are in compliance with the Stripe Services Agreement.
If website ownership needs to be confirmed, you will receive an email asking you to complete a form. We will also send a notification to your account.
Clicking on the Complete form button will lead you to a set of questions which you’ll need to answer to complete the check.
Information you’ll need to provide
- If you have an email address that matches your website domain or the contact email listed on your website, you will be prompted to enter that email address on the form. We’ll then send an email to that address, and you can complete the verification by following the prompts in that email.
- If you do not have an email address that matches your website domain or a contact email listed on your website, but you are able to edit your website, the form will prompt you to add your email address to your website and then send us a direct URL where we can view this edit.
- If you can’t make edits to your website, you’ll need to enter an explanation into the form.
Once you submit your form, we will review your responses and either re-enable your account or let you know if we need any further information.
Additional Information
- If you are not able to complete the form, contact support and we can look into alternative ways to verify that you own your website.
- If you are not able to verify that you own the website linked to your account, Stripe might pause your payouts until this verification is resolved.
