  1. Real Transparency — Not “Blended” Pricing

Stripe, Square, Shopify, and PayPal bury everything inside a flat rate that hides Interchange, Dues & Assessments, and markup.
With Acquiring Payments, you see every component of your cost. No mystery margins, no surprise increases.

  1. You Get an Actual Human Advocate

The big aggregator platforms don’t negotiate, don’t explain, and don’t help when things go sideways.
With us, you get a real point of contact who knows your business, your history, and your risks — and fights for you when needed.

  1. We Take Merchants They Won’t Touch

Stripe, Square, Shopify, and PayPal routinely freeze funds, shut accounts down, or refuse entire industries.
We specialize in card-not-present, “tougher” verticals, and even MATCH merchants, structuring accounts so you can actually run your business.

  1. Customized Underwriting — Not Automated Shutdowns

Aggregators use algorithms that can shut you down the moment something looks unusual.
We work with real underwriters who understand context — spikes, seasonality, continuity billing, larger tickets — and we make sure your account is built correctly from the start.

  1. You Keep More of What You Earn

The big platforms charge for convenience — at the cost of higher fees, padded markups, and rules that don’t fit real-world merchants.
We build pricing around your business, not their margins. That means lower costs and higher net profit, plain and simple.

If you want predictable stability, real support, and pricing that doesn’t drain your pocket, Acquiring Payments is the smarter choice.

  • Yes — we work with merchants who’ve been shut down, frozen, or offboarded by Stripe, Square, PayPal, Shopify, or traditional processors.
  • We will identify the real reason behind the termination — whether it was a sudden closure, frozen funds, chargeback spikes, mismatched MCC, compliance violations, or MATCH/TMF issues.
  • We identify the root cause, gather the correct documentation, and present your file properly to underwriters.
  • If you were placed on the MATCH list, we know how to structure accounts so you can keep processing and stabilize long-term.
  • We work with sponsor banks and processors who understand context — not automated systems that panic at anything unusual.
  • We help rebuild your processing profile, reduce risk triggers, and get you placed appropriately for your business.
  • And unlike big-box providers, you get a real advocate — not a ticket queue or a bot – if you want to talk to someone just call – we might not tell you what you want to hear, but we will talk to you – we don’t hide behind snail mail, email, or texts.

If you’ve been shut down, you’re not the first — and yes, we can help

  1. Yes. Our focus is prevention, not reaction.
    We identify the weak spots in your current setup before they turn into disputes.
  2. We optimize your billing descriptors.
    Clear, accurate descriptors cut confusion and stop “I don’t recognize this charge” disputes cold.
  3. We align your terms, refund policy, and checkout flow.
    When expectations match reality, customers don’t file chargebacks.
  4. We fix billing logic for recurring and continuity programs.
    Proper timing, reminders, and renewals dramatically reduce disputes in subscription models.
  5. We deploy the right fraud tools and velocity filters.
    This cuts down on fraudulent transactions before they hit your account — and before they turn into chargebacks.
  6. We keep you within Visa/Mastercard rules and industry best practices.
    You stay compliant, you stay stable, and you avoid unnecessary monitoring programs.

Bottom line: your risk stays low, and your revenue stays stable. Like we always say “It’s not how much you make that’s important . . . It’s what you keep!”

  • It’s any transaction where the customer and their card aren’t physically present — online, over the phone, by invoice, or through a recurring subscription.
  • Because the card can’t be dipped, tapped, or swiped, the risk of fraud and chargebacks is higher, and processors treat these transactions differently.

CNP merchants need stricter verification, better fraud tools, and proper account structuring to stay compliant and avoid shutdowns.
