Why Verification Fails
Common issues preventing successful location verification.
Important: This is preparation guidance, not a diagnosis or a guarantee of reinstatement.
Common Verification Failure Patterns
1. Address Mismatch
Often checked: Address displayed on your profile compared to the exact address shown in government directories or utility bills.
2. Signage Information
Storefront businesses are commonly requested to show permanent signage instead of banners or paper signs during video verification.
3. Service-Area Business Operations
Service-area businesses may trigger verification issues if they display a residential address publicly. Hiding the address is usually required.
4. Video Verification Failures
Incomplete videos (e.g., failing to continuously film from the street or showing business tools) may be one possible cause for denial.
