As part of our ongoing efforts to ensure StackUp complies with applicable laws and regulations, we are implementing changes to the scope of countries supported by our platform - effective as of 09 November 2022.
With these changes, our platform will, unfortunately, be unable to support specific regions/countries and Stackies from the regions/countries listed below. This applies if the Stackie is residing in the unsupported country or a citizen of the unsupported country.
- The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea)
- The Republic of Sudan
- Russia
- The Islamic Republic of Iran
- The Republic of Cuba
- Ukraine
- The Syrian Arab Republic
- The State of Libya
- The Federal Republic of Somalia
- The Republic of Yemen
- The Democratic Republic of the Congo
Why are these countries not supported?
StackUp, our campaign partners, and our payment providers are all businesses that are legally responsible for compliance with applicable laws and regulations. After having reviewed and identified such applicable regulations, we have found that we are restricted from supporting Stackies from the listed countries. In some cases, we or our campaign partners are not able to award quest rewards to Stackies from certain regions. In other cases, our payment providers are unable to pay out to Stackies from certain regions. In conclusion, we find ourselves unable to pay out rewards to Stackies in the listed countries, despite our desire to do so.
