Error message
Could not verify domain because it's not yet approved.

Common causes

  • The domain's status is pending_review, in_review, rejected, or action_required โ€” only domains with approved status can have a payment method verified.

Troubleshooting

  • Check the domain's status with Get a checkout domain. Verification only works once status is approved.
  • If status is action_required, resolve the issue Paddle flagged, then call Resubmit a checkout domain to send it back for review.
  • If status is pending_review or in_review, wait for Paddle to finish reviewing the domain. Check your inbox for updates, or see what is domain verification.
