paypal payment on hold pending review ecommerce
Pending-review holds freeze cash you already ‘sold.’ Document the hold window for clients, then share settled payouts — not open authorizations.
The actual problem
Holds freeze cash for days, breaking inventory and ad cashflow even when sales look fine in dashboards.
Do this
- PayPal → Activity → filter On hold / Pending; export the list.
- Open each hold reason (unauthorized, shipping, high risk) and submit the requested docs same day.
- Reduce hold triggers: clear product pages, tracking numbers, consistent descriptors.
- Score the same period in Netkiln so fee + hold patterns are visible in one URL.
