What is High Risk Online Credit Card Processing?

High risk is a generic term acquiring banks use to classify eCommerce merchants that have statistically greater numbers of chargebacks than standard risk customers. 

Chargebacks occur when a buyer contacts the card issuing bank in order to dispute a transaction.  Chargebacks can occur for many reasons, including products not performing as promised; not receiving the ordered product or service; or assertions that the eCommerce merchant did not respond to their complaints in a timely fashion.

Friendly fraud is common as unscrupulous buyers dispute a transaction from companies that sell online, attempting to get the product or service for free.  These buyers know from experience that card issuing banks usually side with the cardholder since that person is a customer of the bank.  And, if the consumer insists, the eCommerce merchant is hit with a chargeback. 

Even when a company that sells online has low chargebacks, banks may still classify a business as high risk.  Some industries are classified as high risk because banks are concerned about “reputational risk” of processing for businesses in certain industries.  Other reasons for a high risk classification include high ticket sales, high volume processing, targeted markets, or recurring billing models. 

Businesses that sell online can certainly acquire eCommerce merchant accounts with low rates and favorable terms even if the company is considered high risk. 


 

How to Apply for Your Online Credit Card Processing Merchant Account

Application for ecommerce payment processing always free with no obligation.  Applying for online credit card processing account is a straight-forward process.  You simply provide an application along with supporting documentation about your company.  Ecommerce merchant account accounts are approved in 1-3 days. 

Supporting documents include: Color copy of ID for signer on account, bank statements, processing history, voided check from depository account, and business formation documents.

It’s helpful if the signer on the ecommerce merchant account has good personal credit.  If credit is not good, adding a co-signer with good credit is helpful for account approval. 


 

Approval Process for Ecommerce Payment Accounts

When the application package is received, the underwriter team immediately starts reviewing the information.  First, the details on the application form are verified.  Then, supporting documents are checked.

Ecommerce payment processing statements are looked at.  Bank statements are reviewed to verify there is enough money in the business bank account to support the processing volumes being requested. 

Companies that sell online have websites or mobile applications.  Therefore, the underwriting team will review all the pages of the website or app.  Be sure that websites and apps display properly and load quickly.  Clearly show privacy, returns, shipping, customer service contacts and other relevant information. 

Sometimes, the underwriting team will search the internet for reviews on a company or owners.  Do this yourself so you’ll know what’s out there.  Of course, not all companies have perfect reviews.  If you do see less than favorable reviews, take a minute to respond to comments in a courteous & professional manner.  This demonstrates that you care about customer service and your online reputation.

Once the ecommerce merchant account is approved, your merchant account ID is issued.  And you can begin processing immediately.
