High Risk Merchant Account
_ 02/03/2018

We Tranxact Ltd adds new partnerships for more high risk merchants account solutions

We’re here to help High Risk Merchants

We Tranxact Ltd has been helping low and high risk merchants since our incorporation. Our goal is to offer the best merchant account solutions for businesses of all sizes from our panel or providers. We Tranxact Ltd has recently partnered with an acquirer for both domestic and international payments solutions to offer high risk merchant account with instant approval in some cases.

Finding a suitable payment solution for high risk merchants is very time consuming and demanding. Our main aim is to find a card processor that will accept that high risk merchants whilst achieving the best rates possible, but this is most of the time very challenging. Most of the mainstream UK acquiring banks will not entertain the typical high risk merchants and therefore these high risk merchants miss out on the typical card rates available, which are usually below the 1% rate on debit card and are then being forced to pay anything up to 15% per card transaction in the worst case. I feel its our duty to find the acquiring banking partners that embrace high risk merchants. Merchant banks that welcome high risk merchants are out there, and we’re consistently finding them.

So What’s So Good About These New Partnerships?

From domestic and international solutions, e-commerce, mail order and telephone order and chip and pin options and diverse high risk industries, our new merchant account solution comes with many benefits.

We Tranxact Ltd have had enormous success with claims management companies, especially PPI claims businesses. Although we do not class them as high risk as refunds and chargebacks tend be next to 0, the banks still do and we have to go with what the banks label them as. We’re typically saving these PPI claims management businesses anything up to 80% on their card processing rates. Not only can we substantially reduce their card processing costs but also offer alternative ways to capture card details without heavily relying on collections staff to do so, thus reducing time, hassle, staff costs and increasing collection conversion rates.

Merchant Account Solutions With A No Nonsense Approach

High Risk merchant account services is becoming a very shady profession. I’ve noticed over time, that their are many middlemen involved that are taking a small piece of the pie and benefiting financially, whilst the merchants are left paying ridiculously high card processing rates.

We aim to be as transparent as possible and we will do our very best as possible to find the merchant the best solution to fit their business needs, whilst keeping you updated throughout the whole process.
