High-vote services get prioritized for outreach
Blocked in Syria, with evidence added in January 2026. The block is complex because Checkout.com is a payment processor that needs local acquiring-bank relationships and regulatory frameworks in Syria to operate. The team sent official outreach in April 2026 asking the company to review its Syria IP restrictions under the current sanctions framework; no response has been received yet.
Contacted Company
Official outreach email sent to dpo@checkout.com requesting review of Syria IP restrictions under the current OFAC and BIS framework.
You can help change this. Syria's political situation has changed—all sanctions have been lifted. Many companies just haven't updated their policies yet. If you work at Checkout.com or know someone who does, share our resources with their legal or compliance team. Sometimes all it takes is one person asking the right question.
Tips for advocating: Reach out to legal, compliance, or policy teams. Reference the lifted sanctions. Point to competitors who have already unblocked Syria. Every voice matters.
