I’ve spent so long changing my business model to not identify as a restricted business. https://TipHaven.com it used to be a website where you can receive tips as a creator and they considered it a money transfer business, which I completely understood, so I ended up having to change my business model completely.

My main competitor is www.Wishtender.com and they are using stripe no problem, so I decided to do what they’re doing and have creators able to make wishlists, basically your fans are able to fund things like your food, rent, clothes, etc. I spent a whole month changing my website

Month later today, I ask stripe to review the website, I get an email 10 minutes later saying they’ve reviewed it and it still falls under their restricted businesses… it feels like they didn’t even look at the website at all, I try to message them over and over asking how it’s a restricted business, they proceed to say it’s crowdfunding which it isn’t… it just doesn’t make sense, my competitors can use stripe no problem with the same business model… I don’t know what else to do
