Hello,
Thank you for your interest in Coinbase. Our primary goal is to make digital currency safe and secure for our customers. Coinbase is a regulated Money Services Business under FinCEN (FinCEN.gov), and as part of achieving this goal, we are legally obligated to implement regulatory compliance mechanisms.
Upon careful review, we believe your account has engaged in prohibited use in violation of our Terms of Service and we regret to inform you that we can no longer provide you with access to our service. We respectfully request that you follow the on-screen instructions presented when you log into your Coinbase account to send any remaining balance offsite to an external address.
Should you have any questions or need assistance, please let us know and we'll be happy to help.
Respectfully,
Coinbase Customer Support

I only ever made 1 purchase using that Coinbase account, which was to Nootropics Depot.
It was sometime last week. Purchase was fulfilled - although I got the above email earlier today.

We have detected that you are currently located in the United States of America. Please note, that for regulatory reasons, you can not use our services if your company is located or registered in the United States of America.

What's the deal with this? And why are they saying "your company?" I am just a customer looking for a Coinbase replacement.

Don't sign up for their merchant services account. Just use them to buy BTC.
