Hi Seth,

This message relates to possible use of your Circle account for business purposes. Please note that if we detect any such activity, we are required to close the associated account.

Circle is dedicated to making money fast, secure, and simple. However, as a consumer finance company we do not currently support business accounts. In order to maintain your account, we ask that you answer the following questions at your earliest convenience:

1) What is the source of these funds?

2) What is the purpose of these transfers?

3) What is your primary occupation?

We appreciate your cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions, please reference sections 17 ('Restricted Activities') and 18 ('Prohibited Payments') of the User Agreement or feel free to reach out to a member of our team.

Best,

Nicole, Team Circle
