No I already did contact sales via the form, I meant via maybe email, I even emailed to everyone I can think of working at Stripe, we have been none stop contacting Stripe for last 7 hours, asking update every 15-20 mins

In terms of contacting sales, should I specifically explain this issue or contact to get account manager? The only thing I need is to get our account re-enabled and get back to doing actual business

So far we have only recruited early clients by hand, from the people we know and referrals and landing pages don't play a role there. Have you seen Stripe's first landing page called /dev/payments?

We were not even selling anything ourselves or accepting credit cards, we were simply bringing customers to other Stripe accounts

we needed backend to be built for the site and with Squarespaces, Wix and others you cannot have strong backend system. I will ask our team to fix the landing page but we don't even sell via landing pages, our own sales process is manual and we recruit clients manually, doing zoom calls with them and qualifying them

We provide this to existing Stripe accounts, and we use Open AI API to automate the most processes of lead generation and advertising and innovative business plan which is not charging you any upfront fees

We use Stripe Standard Connect, which means you can connect your Stripe account to ours, and we work on your campaign with no upfront costs and bring you clients by using marketing tools we built. We also leverage Open AI to automate the most marketing efforts which is the reason it took us 7 months to go live and when we bring you the customer based on negotiate we take application fee (% of your sales)

we do email marketing powered by Open AI but when we built our landing page we did not even had the product and our developers basically built in couple days, you can even check this on webarchieve and see our site never changed since then. I will ask our team to update if that's huge problem

we have 0 disputes, 0 payments and we only make money by collecting application fee from the sales of connected Stripe accounts. We technically don't even carry a risk to Stripe

Yes you need to connect your Stripe account, provide us all the requested information and then we prepare the campaign for you with no cost and then we bring you customers. You have the option to increase 30% to reinvest back another x% to do more marketing and get clients faster

Our tech worked and made 20k sales in 3-4 days for our clients after 7 months of work but now Stripe closed our business for no reason

Our company is registered in Delaware, we do have remote-office in Colorado where I live It is not a scam, almost all startups uses Delaware incorporation to be able to raise money

we have not build even on click portion yet, but it is basically for returning customers. Currently we are only doing bringing new clients to other Stripe accounts. We work with Stripe, we don't necessarily compete with them

Our developers build the website, I would not say they are best at copy, we solely focused on building the backend product than copy or marketing aspects and in terms of getting clients, we get it manually by doing b2b sales

I am showing HN what Stripe did to us and I thought this is the best tagline for this case

We basically bring you new users by running ads, email marketing on your behalf without charging you any upfront fees Example, you have a task management software and you are looking for web developers, we bring you those clients without any fees upfront and only charge you application fee (% of your sales) after clients we brought pays you

We usually do b2b sales with each connected account, so landing page does not play a big role in our sales

but we don't process payments ourselves, we take application fee of the payments of other Stripe accounts
