Have you tried verifying your creator account on OnlyFans with your bank, and it appears not to be working? You don’t have to worry. This article will cover everything you need to know about OnlyFans bank verification, why yours is not working, and how to fix it.
Why is your OnlyFans Bank verification not working?
There could be several reasons why your OnlyFans bank verification did not work, which include technical issues from the OnlyFans platform, unsupported countries, and others.
For some time now, OnlyFans has updated its platform to reduce and restrict underaged people by requiring creators to verify their bank accounts.
If you register as a content creator on this platform, you will be paid for creating content. Therefore, you would be required to go through different verifications, one of which is the bank verification process. On the other hand, users don’t go through many verification processes since they’ll only be paying for those content.
However, more often than not, content creators have a problem verifying their bank accounts. And that is a relatively common problem because it is required for every aspiring content creator to go through this process and cannot be bypassed.
You want to get paid for your content, right? But why is the bank verification not working? How can you fix it?
Here’s why your Bank Verification was declined on OnlyFans and how to Fix it.
There are generally a few reasons why many aspiring content creators find it difficult to verify their bank and complete their account processing successfully.
Below are some of these reasons with their fix:
1. Technical issues
Sometimes, issues regarding this verification process do not occur from your end; instead, it’s from the platform itself. Some updates or changes may have been ongoing on the OnlyFans server when you were trying to verify, thus resulting in an error.
Moreover, there may also be some unresolved issues from your bank when trying to verify your bank account; hence, you will have difficulty proving that account.
So what’s the solution to this?
You should contact OnlyFans support to find out whether there is any technical issue they’re currently facing.
If they confirm any problem, you must wait until another time before trying it again.
However, if there’s no technical issue, you should contact your bank customer service to find out from them too. You will have to wait for the issue to be resolved in case the problem comes from the bank. Otherwise, you may contact OnlyFans support to find out why they’re not verifying your bank.
2. The name you submitted didn’t correlate with the one on the bank details
As much as OnlyFans want to make their creators have fun on the platform, they also want to make sure you’re who you said you are.
One of the ways OnlyFans confirms this is by comparing the name on your bank account and the one you used for registering. You shouldn’t have problems getting verified if the details are the same. Otherwise, that bank will be rejected by the platform.
So in a situation where you’ve tried verifying your bank, and you get stuck here, your registration details may not have correlated with the bank details.
What’s the solution?
You should check whether the bank you want to do verification with contains the exact details as what you’re using to register on OnlyFans. If they’re not the same, you should consider updating your registration details to match what you have on your bank details. That way, you will make it easy for the platform to verify who you are.
On the other hand, other things would have been responsible if the details were identical and the verification failed.
3. Your bank is not supported
You probably don’t know this, but Onlyfans does not support certain banks. For example, virtual banks are not allowed.
If you’re having issues verifying a bank on OnlyFans, you’re probably using a bank not recognized or accepted by them.
Moreover, asides from not accepting some banks, OnlyFans sometimes verifies some banks more quickly, without much stress, whereas others may take longer.
So the bank you’re using may be one that will take some time for OnlyFans to verify. Thus, you may receive a message saying it’s not working even before the bank verification can even get completed.
So what’s the solution?
First, ensure that you’re not using any virtual bank. In addition, find out what banks are allowed for verification on their platform.
You can ask about it from friends who have had their content creator account fully verified. That way, you’ll know which banks are supported and also which bank is quickly processed.
4. Your country is not supported, etc.
Some of these platforms where people can register to create content and get paid have a list of countries they don’t support. And that is also the case with OnlyFans. So if you’ve tried registering and you’re getting a bank verification error, it’s possible your country isn’t on their list of supported countries.
What’s the solution?
You should find out whether your country is among the nations they allow to register. If your country is supported, it means that some other problems must have been the cause of the issue.
Otherwise, it would help to ask anyone you know in a supported country — a friend or family — to let you use their bank account.
To be safer, you may also try allowing the person to open the account for you from their country to make the whole process easy for you.
5. internet connection issues
You may have issues performing some activities when your internet connection isn’t fast or strong enough to make a platform work efficiently.
In the case of OnlyFans, your bank verification may not be working because you don’t have a strong internet connection. Aside from that, this error can occur when your internet connection breaks.
What’s the solution?
Check your internet speed and find out whether it’s strong enough. Moreover, check to see that it’s not breaking occasionally.
If you’re still experiencing this issue, consider switching to a WI-FI connection or you could try contacting OnlyFans support for help.
Final Thoughts
Many things could have contributed to why your OnlyFans bank verification isn’t working.
But make sure your bank and location are supported by the platform to minimize the errors that might surface when verifying. That will make it easy to troubleshoot any error that surfaces again.
