Hi, @Momi1077.

Thanks for reaching out and posting to the Shopify Community.

To confirm, you've set up a Shopify Payments account for the United States and are inquiring if you can connect a Pakistani bank account for Shopify Payments.

I would like to advise that Shopify Payments accounts are all region-specific and your question will need to be reviewed by our internal team. Some payment methods for Shopify Payments must be approved before you can use them. When you activate Shopify Payments, the approval process for applicable local payment methods and credit card methods begins automatically. A payment method remains in “manual review” status while your application is reviewed. If your application is approved, then you can begin using the payment method.

I recommend contacting our team through the Shopify Help Center as they will be in the best position to advise on the next steps you can take.

For better visibility, I'll share those steps below.

How to contact Shopify Support:

• Go to the Shopify Help Center
• Log in to your account
• From the topics provided, select: Money > Shopify Payments
• Scroll down to Get Support to view our contact options

I hope this helps!
