As a new seller on Etsy, I faced several challenges. On the first day, I fell victim to a buyer scam who sent a link. Fortunately, I promptly locked my credit card. On the second day, I successfully gained a buyer from India. However, on the third day, Etsy requested bank verification, and my attempts failed because my bank does not support international transactions.
After reaching out to the bank, I realized that my bank does not accept international transactions. Currently, my Etsy account is suspended for reasons such as items listed for sale not meeting Etsy's policies on handmade, vintage, or craft supply, violations of Etsy’s Prohibited Items Policy, violations of Etsy's Intellectual Property Policy, or inconsistent, incorrect, or closely associated account owner information related to a previously suspended Etsy account.
I am trying to appeal and have fixed my product listings, but I am still struggling to verify my bank as it does not support international transactions. I am working to find a solution to lift the suspension on my Etsy account and identify any errors that may have occurred.
@PromptAIShop You may need to change banks or only sell to buyers in your own country.
