Tell HN: Stripe ToS update demands biometrics, freezes payments until given

11•cuz-reasons•6h ago
I've been using Stripe for my business for about a decade. Got an email from them:

> There’s an open task on your account that needs attention. To keep your account in good standing, take a moment to review it.

Unsaid is that they froze payouts until accepting their new ToS, and that they require a Photo ID plus face scan in order to comply.

I don't necessarily think requiring biometrics is a bad thing, but:

- No advance notice was given.

- A simple "[Action required] Review terms of service for {stripe-id}" email is easy to miss

- Frozen payouts can destroy a business.

This makes me rethink my relationship with them. Super disappointing.
