Learn moreFrequently Asked Questions About High-Risk Payment Processing
What makes a merchant account 'high-risk'?
A merchant account is typically classified as 'high-risk' due to several factors:
- Industry type (CBD, gaming, adult content, etc.)
- High average transaction amounts
- High chargeback ratios or potential for fraud
- International or multi-currency transactions
- Credit issues or lack of processing history
- Subscription or recurring billing models
CircoPay specializes in serving these high-risk industries with tailored payment solutions.
How does CircoPay help with chargeback prevention?
CircoPay provides comprehensive chargeback prevention through a multi-layered approach: advanced fraud detection systems that flag suspicious transactions, customer verification protocols, detailed transaction descriptors, and real-time alerts. We also offer chargeback representment services to help recover lost revenue and provide detailed analytics to identify patterns and prevent future disputes.
Can CBD businesses accept credit card payments legally?
Yes, CBD businesses can legally accept credit card payments through properly set up high-risk merchant accounts like those offered by CircoPay. While many traditional payment processors avoid the CBD industry due to regulatory complexity, our specialized payment solutions ensure compliance with current regulations while providing your customers with seamless credit card processing options.
