ToggleWhy It’s Necessary to Activate Your Poshmark Account?
When you create a Poshmark account, it’s not immediately fully functional. The activation process works as a verification step, ensuring that you’re a real person and that your account details are correct. This is particularly important for Poshmark because it has a lot to do with the transactions happening on the platform.
By activating your account, you’re essentially completing your profile setup and agreeing to Poshmark’s terms of service. This allows Poshmark to set up the necessary systems to process payments to you when you make sales.
Without activation, Poshmark can’t verify your identity or payment information, which means they can’t securely transfer money to you. This safeguard protects both sellers and buyers from getting scammed.
