Account Under Review? What It Means and What to Do Next (Worldwide 2026)
.
Is your account stuck "Under Review"? In 2026, this is a standard safety procedure. Use this guide to clear the review quickly and secure your business funds.
How to Pass the Review
- Submit High-Quality Docs: Don't use blurry photos. Use a scanner app for your ID and bank statements. Ensure all 4 corners are visible.
- Check Your Email: Look for a specific request. Often, a review is stuck simply because a user missed a one-sentence question from support.
- Be Honest About "Usage": If asked, clearly state your business intent (e.g., "Freelance Digital Marketing"). Vague answers lead to permanent blocks.
- Don't Open New Accounts: While under review, do NOT try to open a second account. This is flagged as "Fraudulent Circumvention" and will get both accounts banned.
