Why is my Stripe account in pending status?

After creating a new Stripe account, you may notice that your account is pending. Unfortunately, you will be unable to accept payments until your Stripe account is fully setup and activated. If you recently setup your Stripe account, it may take a few minutes for Stripe to verify your information and enable your account to accept payments. If after a few minutes your Stripe account is not in live and fully functional, contact Stripe Support. You can use the following email to quickly contact Stripe.

Hello,

My recently created and activated Stripe account is unable to accept charges. How can we resolve this so I can start processing credit card payments right away?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
