Credit card processing companies have a different approach to high-risk businesses than low-risk ones. Their approach is based on the level of financial risk they assume when they process transactions for you. Your business will be carefully evaluated and it will determine whether or not your business falls into the “high-risk” category.
Running a business today typically requires that you allow your customers the option of making payments with credit or debit cards. In fact, credit/debit cards processing are just about the only way you can get paid for your services if you are a eCommerce entrepreneur. Though small businesses can get by with payment gateways like PayPal or Square, an upgrade to a full-service merchant will be required once your business reaches a certain size. While it would be great if credit card processors treated all businesses equally, the reality is they don't.
Simply put, no. We have banks that are flexible with poor credit as long as the other parts of your business check out. For instance, if you have poor credit but a beautiful looking website, decent financials, and no negative complaints online, then the bank would be okay with supporting that account. You could also get a cosigner as a last resort.
On average, we can get you set up between 3-5 business days. This all depends on the business type, bank, and the processing volume requested. The faster you can turn in a complete file, the faster we can get the account set up.
No, we can take on new startups as well as businesses that have been around for years. You also don’t need to have tons of money in the bank because most start-ups are bootstrapped and our banks understand this!
Regardless of the bank that will be supporting your business, they will need a copy of your ID and a voided check or bank letter. Website compliance and additional documentation may be asked for, but will vary on a case-to-case basis.
