Hi @Daniella. I understand that hearing that your payment will be on hold for 120 days is extremely frustrating and puts your business in a financial hold. Wave moves funds on behalf of businesses and as such we must verify transactions and businesses frequently to ensure that both Wave and your business are kept safe from harmful transactions. In certain industries are in cases where chargebacks are frequent, holds ensure that if the payments are charged back by the customer, there are funds to cover that charge back. Outside of this, Wavers may end up going into overdraft which also causes additional hardship. I have ensured that our Risk Team knows that you have reached out here with your concerns, and I can see that they have sent you a reply earlier today. At this point, communicating with them through the email will be the best way to resolve the issue and given your concerns, they will be the best people to speak to your situation specifically. I understand that the situation is not ideal, and know that our goal is to help keep both your business and ours protected. Should you need more information or want to speak to someone on the phone, you can always request that in the email thread that you have with our Risk Team.
