High Risk Merchant Account
& Payment Gateway

High risk businesses are ones that sell items that fall into areas such as adult entertainment, online gambling, ticket sales, or medications. While the products sold and services provided are completely legal, these items come with a higher risk of theft.

Major credit card processors tend to stay away from giving high risk businesses the power to process credit cards because of possible false refunds and stolen cards. These credit firms also want to avoid the issues that come with a high risk merchant account. Some card processing companies feel they’ll lose larger customers if they offer high risk card processing services.
