Troubleshooting common issues

Before contacting Shopify Support, review these common onboarding issues and their solutions.

My document was rejected

Ensure the information on your account matches your document exactly, and update your account if needed. If your documents are still being rejected, then refer to the following sections on this page:

My address can't be automatically verified

If your address can't be automatically verified, then you'll be asked to provide a proof of address document. Proof of address documents must include your full name and home address, and must be one of the accepted document types. Before uploading your document:

  1. Confirm that the address on your Shopify Payments account matches exactly with the address on your proof of address document.

  3. Confirm that the document includes your own full name. If you have a utility bill in someone else's name, then you'll need to provide a different document.

My payment is showing as pending

My payouts are failing with a virtual bank account

Virtual bank accounts such as Revolut and Payoneer are accepted for payouts, but have a higher payout failure rate than traditional bank accounts.

Frequently asked questions

Review these frequently asked questions about Shopify Payments requirements in New Zealand.

Why do you need my photo ID and personal information if I'm a company, partnership, or non-profit?

Even if you're set up as a company, partnership, or non-profit, the banking partners that Shopify works with are required by regulations in New Zealand to verify the identities of the individuals associated with the business.

I'm a citizen of New Zealand but I don't currently live there. Can I use Shopify Payments in New Zealand?

If your business type is individual or sole trader, then you're required to live in New Zealand to be eligible for Shopify Payments in New Zealand. If you don't currently live in New Zealand, then you should create a Shopify Payments account for the region where you live.

Update your store address to your current location. If your location is eligible for Shopify Payments, then you can create a Shopify Payments account for that region instead.

If you're a partnership, corporation, or non-profit, then you aren't required to personally live in New Zealand, but your business must be registered there and have a New Zealand business address. If you need help, then contact Shopify Support.

My account was already verified. Why am I being asked to provide new information?

Regulatory requirements and the requirements from financial partners and their card networks change over time. When this happens, you might need to provide additional information to remain compliant. You'll receive these requests through a banner or alert in your admin and a corresponding email. You must complete these requests to continue using Shopify Payments.

Bagaimanakah saya mengemaskinikan maklumat akaun Shopify Payments saya?

Jika anda sedang diminta untuk melengkapkan pengesahan akaun, maka anda boleh membuat apa-apa kemas kini pada maklumat anda daripada dalam halaman pengesahan berserta menyerahkan apa-apa dokumen yang diminta.

Di luar proses pengesahan, pemilik akaun kedai boleh mengemaskinikan butiran ini melalui Tetapan > Umum > Butiran Perniagaan. Klik tiga titik di sebelah entiti perniagaan anda dan kemudian klik “edit” untuk mengemaskinikan maklumat perniagaan tersebut, termasuk jenis perniagaan.

Ambil perhatian bahawa apa-apa perubahan yang anda buat di sini akan dihantar secara automatik kepada rakan kongsi perbankan kami untuk semakan, dan maklumat baharu tersebut akan dijalankan semula melalui proses pengesahan mereka. Perubahan tersebut berkemungkinan disahkan semula secara automatik, tetapi anda juga boleh diminta untuk memberikan dokumen sokongan.
