What we do not do
Our scope is payment processing. We do not provide business formation, banking, lending, credit cards or other financial products.
Who decides
All approvals, pricing, reserve requirements, settlement schedules and account terms are determined by the applicable processor, acquiring institution, gateway or underwriting provider. Nothing on this website is an offer, a guarantee of approval, or a commitment to specific terms.
Go deeper
Longer explanations of the categories merchants ask about most, including the documents each one tends to require.
Some businesses are reviewed more closely than others. That does not make them unbankable — it means the application has to be prepared properly, sent to providers that actually underwrite the category, and supported with documentation that answers questions before they are asked.

Online businesses live and die by checkout. We help you get a processing setup that matches how you actually sell — the cart you use, the currencies your customers pay in, the way you fulfil, and the promises your refund policy makes.

Recurring revenue is attractive to build and unforgiving to underwrite. Renewal transparency, cancellation handling and dunning strategy have as much influence on an application as the volume itself.

Disputes are an operational problem before they are a payments problem. Most preventable chargebacks come from something a customer did not understand, could not find, or did not receive on time.

An approval is only useful once money moves. We coordinate the connection between the approved account, the gateway, your website, your CRM and your checkout — and we test it before you announce it.

How It Works
A structured process from first enquiry to live processing, with a clear explanation at every stage of what happens next and who decides.
The merchant provides information about the business, ownership, products, website, volume, processing history, and current requirements.
Our team reviews the industry, region, customer base, fulfilment model, chargebacks, refund policies, and technical setup.
We identify suitable processing routes and explain the required documents, expected terms, and next steps.
The application is submitted for underwriting. Once approved, the merchant receives integration instructions and onboarding assistance.
Who decides
All approvals, pricing, reserve requirements, settlement schedules and account terms are determined by the applicable processor, acquiring institution, gateway or underwriting provider. Nothing on this website is an offer, a guarantee of approval, or a commitment to specific terms.
Questions
Straight answers, including where the honest answer is “that depends on the underwriter”.
A merchant account is a commercial arrangement that lets your business accept card payments and receive the resulting funds. It sits behind the payment gateway your customers interact with, and it is provided by an acquiring institution or a processor sponsored by one.
It is different from a payment aggregator, where many businesses share a single underlying merchant identifier. With a dedicated merchant account, your business is underwritten individually — which usually means more scrutiny at the start and more stability afterwards.
“High risk” is a classification applied by acquirers, processors and card networks. It reflects the financial and reputational exposure they take on, not the quality of your business.
Common reasons include elevated dispute exposure, regulatory or licensing requirements, future delivery, recurring billing, cross-border structures, limited processing history, or a prior account closure. Being classified this way does not mean your business cannot be placed — it means the application has to be prepared and directed carefully.
Often, yes — this is one of the most common reasons businesses contact us. Aggregator closures frequently happen because the business model does not fit the aggregator’s standard risk appetite, rather than because of anything the merchant did wrong.
We ask for the closure notice, the stated reason, and what has changed since. If the closure was recorded on an industry termination list, that materially changes the routes available, so it is important to tell us up front. We cannot promise a placement, but we can tell you honestly what we think is realistic.
In most cases, yes. Both platforms support connections to a range of gateways, and we confirm compatibility between your platform, the gateway and the approved account before anything is committed.
Where a gateway change is required, we say so early and coordinate the switch with your developer so existing subscriptions and vaulted card data are handled correctly. Platform names are referenced for compatibility only and do not imply partnership or endorsement.
Yes. Memberships, continuity programmes, SaaS subscriptions, payment plans and automatic renewals are all within scope.
Recurring billing draws extra attention in underwriting, so we review your renewal disclosures, cancellation flow, dunning schedule and descriptor consistency as part of preparation. Those details influence both the application and your long-term dispute ratio.
All approvals, pricing, reserve requirements, settlement schedules and account terms are determined by the applicable processor, acquiring institution, gateway or underwriting provider. Nothing on this website is an offer, a guarantee of approval, or a commitment to specific terms.
Tell us about your business, current processing situation, and growth plans. Our team will review the information and explain the available next steps.
Submitting a form does not guarantee approval and does not create a contractual relationship. It begins a review conversation so we can explain the options that may be available to your business.
