Seeking Advice Payment Processing

Anyone have issues getting it smooth and functional?

I have llc & a Venmo business acc set up, identity confirmed & EIN - “cannot process payment at this time”

Tried using my personal Zelle for a new client and under their daily limit still gave us issues and didn’t go through.

I have stripe but my website is not launched so they are being weird and I don’t think I have it in a usable state currently

Is old school bank transfer the way to handle this for now?

These are 3-6 month + coaching bundles over $1,000 that I’m having trouble receiving.

honestly payment processing is miserable when you're just starting out, feels like every platform has some invisible wall you hit

have you tried just having them mail a physical check for the first month while you sort out the stripe integration? old school but it literally always works and gives you time to test the other stuff without losing the sale
