FAQs
Questions businesses ask before applying
Explore our payment solutions, see the industries we serve, or read the full merchant account FAQs.
What does Payment Circle do?
We help U.S. supplement, nutraceutical and other high-risk businesses apply for the right merchant account and payment tools, including credit card processing, payment gateways, virtual terminals, ACH and eCheck processing, and chargeback support. As an independent agent, we prepare your application and match you with processing partners that accept your category.
Do you work with high-risk businesses?
Yes. High-risk merchant accounts are our focus, led by supplement and nutraceutical brands, and we work with new U.S. businesses in categories that need specialized underwriting. We don't work with businesses previously terminated by a processor or placed on the MATCH list, and approval always depends on the processor's underwriting.
What do I need to apply?
Typically your business details, owner information, a business bank account and, if you already accept cards, recent processing statements. We'll tell you exactly what your application needs.
How long does approval take?
It depends on the processor, your industry and how complete your application is. Complete documents and accurate volume estimates help avoid delays.
Is there any obligation to talk to you?
No. The consultation is free and there's no obligation. We'll review your business and recommend options before you decide anything.
