Square Up Shut NOT WOKE SHOWS Down (Our CC Processing Anyways)

NOT WOKE SHOWS Reports: Some potentially spooky news from the deep state may be affecting NOT WOKE SHOWS.

Yesterday someone donated a dollar to us through our web site that caused our credit card processor (square) to associate the donation with a red flag in their system.

I had to fill out some paperwork to explain the nature of our business and that we simply receive donations from people who find value in the web site and that many of those donations come from people all around the world. Sometimes those donations are as little as a dollar and sometimes they're a lot more. We're thankful for every cent that people feel compelled to send our way be it small or large.


Well... today, square shut down our credit card processing and ~~didn't~~ wouldn't give a reason why. I've since escalated the issue with square's technical support however the support representative confirms that the shutdown is final... and it will probably stay that way.

The email I received from square said,

---

"We recently reviewed your account and found activity that our platform is unable to support. Because of this, we are sorry to inform you that your Square account is now deactivated."

---

Maybe it's the tin-foil hat that I'm seemingly having to wear all the time these days but this whole thing is looking to me like a case of de-banking because someone within square doesn't like the premise of our web site.

I've since found a new credit card processing company... (Found on "PublicSq." Check them out if you're unfamiliar!) and was fortunate to speak with the owner who agreed to wave all monthly fees because he likes what we're doing and wants to be of assistance to our cause. Shout out to Forthright Services LLC If you want an honorable credit card processing company that isn't woke... check them out!


We don't process a lot of online transactions as we're still a fairly new service and are lucky if we break even on expenses. If however my assumptions are right though and they are shutting our account down because of the site's *premise* ... I'll bet Square takes a P.R. hit for this.

I'll keep everyone updated as this plays out.
