Hi, We understand the legal framing, but this review omits critical context. Your payout was not withheld without cause. Following a review of your transaction activity, we identified violations of our Merchant Acceptance Policy. As a result, your account was offboarded and the payout was cancelled. The funds are under a standard 120-day hold - a requirement under card network rules to account for dispute and chargeback exposure, which was already present on your account. A registered LLC and completed verification do not exempt a merchant from ongoing compliance obligations. Account approval is not a guarantee of continued access if policy violations occur. The hold is a documented, policy-driven process - not an arbitrary or improper action. Characterizing it as banking fraud or fund withholding is inaccurate and does not reflect the facts of your case. Team Dodo Payments

Hi, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We are sorry to hear about the experience with the credit features, and we completely understand how frustrating it must have been to go through several days of back and forth before the bug was acknowledged. That is not the standard we want to hold ourselves to, especially for a payment platform. Your suggestion about marking new features as beta is genuinely valuable and something we are taking seriously internally. It would help set clearer expectations for merchants and allow you to make informed decisions about what to rely on in production. We are glad to hear that onboarding and payouts have been smooth, and we hope to earn back your confidence as we improve the stability of newer features and our support response times. If you have any further feedback or run into anything else, please feel free to reach out to us at [email protected], and we will make sure it gets the attention it deserves. Team Dodo Payments

Hi, We understand this felt frustrating, especially given the timing. However, the actions taken were not random. Following a compliance review, the business was flagged for copyright-related concerns, which fall outside our platform’s acceptable use. In such cases, we are required to immediately stop processing and reverse recent transactions; this is a standard obligation, not a discretionary action. It’s also important to clarify that metrics like “no chargebacks” or transaction success don’t override compliance requirements, which operate independently of performance. We did communicate the reason via email, and the conversation was resolved there. Your account remains active for any compliant use cases going forward. We genuinely aim to support merchants long-term, but we also have to operate within strict regulatory boundaries. Team Dodo Payments

Hi, We understand this has been frustrating, and we’d like to clarify a few points. The account action was taken following a compliance review, where the business was identified as operating from an unsupported jurisdiction under our policies. These decisions are based on regulatory and partner requirements and are not made arbitrarily. Regarding payouts, a payout had already been initiated prior to the account action, and the remaining balance reflected a negative wallet balance, which is why no further payouts were processed. We did share details via email, but we’re happy to review your case again if needed. Please feel free to reach out to us at [email protected]. We appreciate your feedback and are continuously working to improve clarity and communication. Team Dodo Payments

Hi, We’d like to clarify a few important points for transparency. Dodo Payments operates under strict compliance and partner network requirements. In this case, the account action was taken following a risk and compliance review, where the platform was flagged for potential NSFW content generation. These decisions are not made lightly and are based on actual testing, third-party signals, and payment partner requirements, not assumptions. Regarding refunds, when a business is found to be in violation of policy, we are required to wind down processing and reverse recent transactions. This is a standard risk mitigation step across all Merchant of Record providers, and not something we can selectively override. On communication - we did respond via email. However, certain details cannot be shared publicly due to compliance and partner confidentiality obligations, which are standard across the payments industry. We also want to clarify that: 1. Refunds are issued back to the original payment method, and timelines depend on the customer’s bank 2. Test transactions follow the same refund flow as live transactions We understand that this may not have been the outcome you expected. However, these actions are taken to ensure platform integrity and compliance with global payment regulations. If you choose to build a new product that aligns with our policies, you’re welcome to apply again, and our team will review it independently. Wishing you the best moving forward. Team Dodo Payments
