Learn which activities can result in a permanent Makeity account ban, including platform bypassing, fraud, harassment, fake content, and repeated violations.
What Activities Can Lead to a Permanent Account Ban?
Makeity may permanently ban a creator account when serious, repeated, or intentional violations of the platform rules are identified.
A permanent ban means the creator loses access to Makeity and may not create, operate, or use another account to return to the platform.
🚫 Serious Violations May Result in a Lifetime Ban
Activities involving platform bypassing, fraud, fake identities, harassment, payment manipulation, repeated missed obligations, or attempts to avoid a previous suspension may result in the permanent closure of your creator account.
Makeity’s Account Safety Rules
Creators are expected to act honestly, communicate professionally, and complete every project through the official Makeity process.
- Keep project communication inside Makeity
- Keep all project payments inside Makeity
- Provide accurate account and identity information
- Upload original and authentic creator content
- Respect businesses, creators, and Makeity team members
- Meet accepted project obligations and deadlines

Platform Bypassing
Platform bypassing is one of the most serious violations on Makeity. It includes attempting to move a business relationship created through Makeity outside the platform.
Examples include:
- Sharing your phone number, email, or WhatsApp details
- Moving a project conversation to another platform
- Offering a lower price for direct payment
- Asking the business to cancel an order and continue privately
- Delivering content outside the official Makeity order
- Arranging future paid work directly with a Makeity business
Permanent Bypass Ban
Intentional attempts to avoid Makeity’s communication, order, or payment process may result in a permanent lifetime ban.
External Payments and Private Deals
Creators must not request, accept, or arrange payment outside Makeity for a relationship or project created through the platform.
Prohibited payment methods include:
- PayPal payments sent directly by the business
- Bank transfers or wire payments
- Wise, Revolut, Zelle, Venmo, or Cash App
- Cash or cryptocurrency payments
- External invoices or payment links
- Direct deposits, tips, bonuses, or advance payments
False Identity or Account Information
All information submitted to Makeity must be accurate and belong to the person operating the creator account.
A permanent ban may be applied for:
- Using another person’s identity
- Submitting false identity or verification documents
- Using a misleading profile photo
- Providing false age, country, language, or personal information
- Allowing another person to complete projects through your account
- Creating an account for someone who is not eligible
Fake, Stolen, or Misleading Content
Creator samples and project deliverables must be authentic and created according to the project requirements.
Serious content violations include:

- Using AI-generated people or voices without authorization
- Submitting the same content for unrelated businesses
- Editing content to falsely represent a product or result
- Using copyrighted materials without permission
- Claiming to have created content that was produced by someone else
Content Fraud
Knowingly submitting stolen, fake, or misleading content may result in immediate and permanent account removal.
Receiving Products and Not Delivering Content
When a creator accepts an order and receives a product, the creator is expected to complete the agreed content within the project deadline.
Serious violations may include:
- Keeping the product without intending to create content
- Stopping communication after confirming delivery
- Claiming the package was not received when tracking shows delivery
- Refusing to return a product when instructed by Makeity
- Repeating this behavior across multiple orders
Repeated Missed Deadlines and Project Abandonment
A single delay may not result in a permanent ban, especially when the creator communicates and has a valid reason. Repeated or intentional project abandonment is more serious.
Your account may be permanently restricted if you repeatedly:
- Accept projects and stop responding
- Ignore deadline reminders
- Fail to upload content
- Refuse to complete required revisions

- Publishing private information about another user
- Attempting to intimidate a business into approving content
- Making false threats of legal, financial, or reputational harm
Immediate Safety Action
Serious threats, harassment, or safety risks may result in immediate permanent removal without a prior warning.
Manipulating Orders, Ratings, or Reviews
Account performance must reflect genuine projects and authentic business feedback.
Manipulation may include:
- Creating fake business accounts to place orders
- Arranging fake ratings or reviews
- Offering refunds or benefits in exchange for a positive rating
- Pressuring a business to change an honest review
- Using friends or related accounts to improve performance
- Submitting false reports to damage another user
Duplicate Accounts and Suspension Evasion
Creators must not create or operate additional accounts to avoid account restrictions, verification requirements, or a previous ban.
This includes:
- Creating a new account after suspension
- Using a different email address or phone number
- Using another person’s details to return to Makeity
- Operating multiple creator profiles
- Using a family member’s account to accept projects
- Buying or taking control of another creator account
Ban Evasion
Any account created or used to avoid a suspension may also be permanently blocked.

Examples include:

- Making fraudulent payout claims
- Using stolen financial information
- Submitting altered receipts or tracking information
- Creating fake disputes or false loss claims
- Attempting to receive payment for work not completed
- Using Makeity to promote a scam or illegal activity
