Did Etsy blacklist my country
 

Hello,
I've heard so many rumors on Etsy blacklisting certain countries and deactivating their stores right away when they create them, but I wasn't sure.
Lately Etsy suspended two of my stores permanently, and so many people from my country Morocco were having the same issue.
I was curious, so I asked someone who sells Etsy accounts to sell me one in Morocco and he said that Etsy blacklisted Morocco.
Is this true?
How to get around this?

at the moment morocco is not on the blacklist, etsy payments are available to you, you are doing something wrong

blacklist is not rumors, read etsy's regulations a bit

etsy and all major marketplaces make nearly all profits with sellers from just a few countries so that they can afford being tough on countries that have high risk but barely make them money

It's interesting, because I had such a successful store before Etsy suspend it.
Not to mention that Moroccans participate heavily with handmade craft and traditional craft items on Etsy.

Hopefully you can get other backups going - no blacklist on Morocco from what I saw as well
