Quick answer

Restrictions usually mean required verification items are past due. Use the Dashboard task list first; for Connect platforms read requirements.past_due and disabled_reason in the API.

How to fix it

Try these in order — the most common fix is first.

  2. 2. For platforms using the API

    1. Retrieve the account and read requirements.disabled_reason and requirements.past_due
    2. Resolve past_due items first

Symptoms

Dashboard says more information is needed, charges or payouts are disabled, or a connected account shows disabled_reason.

Why it happens

  • Identity or business verification past due
  • Periodic re-verification or higher volume thresholds
  • New regional rules (for example updated verification requirements for Custom connected accounts in Europe in 2026)
  • Mismatch between submitted documents and entered data
  • Rejected reason requires Stripe review
