Our store is currently trapped in a critical frontend-backend sync deadlock that only a developer or senior risk specialist can fix from the database side
Despite the approval, the red admin banner ( “Shopify Payments sales are suspended. Verify your identity…” ) is permanently stuck.
Our checkout remains completely blocked, causing massive financial losses every hour.
the backend error banner for “Identity Verification” is STILL stuck on our admin home page and refuses to disappear, which completely paraylzes our checkout.
