Fiverr is a powerful platform for freelancers - but it also enforces strict security measures to protect buyers and sellers. Recently, many freelancers in Nigeria and across Africa have experienced account flagging or restrictions. Understanding why this happens - and how to avoid it - is key to safeguarding your freelance business.

🔍 Common Reasons Fiverr Flags Accounts

1️⃣ Using the same Payoneer or PayPal for multiple accounts
Fiverr's rules clearly prohibit linking a single payment method to multiple seller profiles. If they detect one Payoneer or PayPal used across several accounts, it can lead to all those accounts being flagged or suspended.

2️⃣ Multiple accounts on one device or IP
Operating more than one Fiverr account from the same device, network, or IP raises red flags. Fiverr expects each user to have only one account unless officially part of a team.

3️⃣ Inconsistent login locations or IP addresses
Frequently switching networks—like alternating between mobile data and Wi‑Fi—can trigger Fiverr’s automated fraud detection.

4️⃣ Payment method issues or chargebacks
If Fiverr detects suspicious payment patterns, such as linking unauthorized Payoneer/PayPal accounts or chargebacks and frequent disputes, it may restrict withdrawals or freeze earnings.

🛡️How to Stay Safe and Avoid Being Flagged – Dos and Don’ts

✅ Use only one Fiverr account linked to one verified payment method
🚫 Don’t share Payoneer/PayPal details across accounts

✅ Maintain consistent IP address and device

🚫 Avoid switching between mobile data, VPNs, or public Wi‑Fi

✅ Link through a trusted third-party to manage withdrawals like Swifo
