FAQs For Low Risk Merchant Accounts

Here are some of the most frequently asked questions about low risk merchant accounts.

Do You Offer Free Equipment to Low Risk Merchants?

Yes! While many existing businesses prefer to continue using their existing point of sale system, which we offer to remotely transition to our credit card processing platform for free, for new retail businesses or retail businesses who are simply ready to get new credit card processing equipment, we offer free credit card processing terminals, or mobile swiping devices.

Simply indicate that you’re a retail or mobile merchant in your application, and you’ll be contacted by our sales team to discuss your free equipment options prior to shipping your equipment.

What Is Low Risk? What’s The Difference Between Low Risk And High Risk?

Merchants classified as “high risk” (from the perspective of the payment processing industry) have one or more of the following characteristics:

(1.) irregular or very high-ticket sales;
(2.) in an industry with a history of high chargebacks;
(3.) in an industry that large banks are “politically” unwilling to support; or
(4.) in a highly regulated industry.

Merchants classified as “low risk,” on the other hand, will typically have all of the following characteristics:

(1.) low to mid-ticket sales;
(2.) in an industry with a history of low chargebacks;
(3.) in an industry that is not politically controversial, and is not highly regulated.

A brick-and-morter coffee shop, a bookstore, or a restaurant would be a typical example of a low risk merchant.
