We should clarify in the API docs and also update any outdated literature such as the KB article linked above.
It's because customers represent both buyers and sellers.
Sure, but when is that relevant to me?
It would be nice if the current API docs had a section that went into detail about it e.g.:
You need to underwrite a customer if the total payouts to unverified identities in a given year exceeds $100,000 (this is per our agreement with our processor)
To clarify, if:
- Person A was paid 50K in one year
- Person B was paid 30K in one year
- Person C was paid 110K in one year
If, from the above, only Person C was a verified identity, then you are still compliant, since the total payouts for both the unverified users A and B is < 100K.
Sure, we should be more explicit, I was just stating the answer.
Prompted by a conversion on IRC.

What is this field for? I originally thought Balanced required underwriting in some situations.
