Stripe will close my account because I wanted to use it for prohibited business

[superdario]

This is just a funny story that I want to share.

I wanted to use Stripe for prohibited business which falls under fetish. I didn't know that it falls under prohibited business because I did not check, so my fault there. They asked for a review and told me that it was prohibited. I agreed and told them I would not use Stripe for that business.

Now they want to close my account. I asked them not to close my account because I would not use my account for prohibited business but they still want to close it.

So I wanted to use it for prohibited business, they reviewed it, I didn't use it and now they want to close it because I wanted to use it.

I'm tempted to ask them why they allow OnlyFans which is pure porn and falls under prohibited business. I know it's because of money but still.
