Getting a High-Risk Merchant Account and Payment Gateway for Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) With Durango Merchant Services

Running a Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) store can be a very good technological decision when starting or expanding an e-commerce store. With its incredible flexibility and robust features, Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) swings the doors wide open for businesses to create customized shopping experiences that can scale with growth. But if your business falls into a high-risk category, you’re likely aware of the challenges that come with securing reliable payment processing. Durango Merchant Services has been here for decades to help you overcome these hurdles. We offer tailored high-risk merchant accounts and payment gateway integrations that keep your Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) store running smoothly, allowing you to focus on what you do best—growing your business.

Cases When Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) Users May Need A High-Risk Merchant Account & Payment Gateway

Choosing Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) means you’ve opted for one of the most powerful and customizable e-commerce platforms available. But when your business operates in a high-risk industry, this power comes with a unique set of challenges. Let’s explore what makes a business high-risk and why this classification means you need a specialized payment processing solution.

Understanding High-Risk Classification & Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) Strengths

High-risk businesses are those that operate in industries where the likelihood of chargebacks, fraud, or regulatory scrutiny is significantly higher. Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento)’s scalability and extensive customization options make it a popular choice for businesses in these sectors, such as online gaming, adult entertainment, supplements, and travel services. Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento)’s scalability and customizability also make it an ideal platform for high volume sales, and level 2 and level 3 payment processing classifications.

Here’s why these industries are considered high-risk:

  • Chargebacks: If you’re running a Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) store in a high-risk industry, you’ve probably encountered higher than average chargeback rates. Chargebacks can arise from various sources, such as customer disputes, fraudulent transactions, or dissatisfaction with a product or service. For payment processors, a high chargeback rate is a red flag, signaling increased risk and making them hesitant to partner with businesses in these industries.

  • Fraud: Industries like online gaming and adult entertainment are especially prone to fraudulent activity. While Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento)’s open-source nature allows for customization to combat fraud, the risk remains significant. Fraud doesn’t just impact your bottom line; it also raises concerns for payment processors who may be wary of serving businesses in these sectors.

  • Regulatory Scrutiny: If your Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) store operates in industries like supplements or travel services, you’re likely subject to strict regulatory oversight. Navigating these regulations can be challenging, and any missteps could result in legal or financial penalties, complicating your relationship with payment processors even further.

  • Complex Financial Transactions: Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento)’s appeal often lies in its ability to handle complex product offerings and large transaction volumes. While these features are great for business growth, they can be red flags for traditional payment processors who view them as indicators of higher risk.

Challenges with Traditional Payment Processors

The high-risk label can create significant obstacles when securing payment processing through traditional providers. These challenges can have a direct impact on your Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) store’s operations:

Challenge 1: Rejected Merchant Account Applications

We’ve heard the story many times, you have dedicated countless hours to building your Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) store, customizing every detail to create the perfect online experience for your customers. You’ve put in the work, and your business is finally starting to take off. But then, you encounter the first major hurdle—your application for a merchant account is rejected. It’s not because of anything you’ve done wrong, but simply because of the industry you’re in. Traditional payment processors often shy away from high-risk businesses, labeling them as too risky without considering the unique challenges you face. It’s a frustrating and disheartening experience, especially when you know that the success of your Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) store depends on having reliable payment processing in place.

Challenge 2: Sudden Account Closures

Many of our clients managed to get past that initial rejection and secure a merchant account, but another challenge can rear it’s head down the road.  Many new online shops start off with an aggregate payment platform like Stripe, Paypal or Square. Unfortunately, the reality is that the risk of sudden account closures is always lurking in the background with these aggregate payment processors. You’re constantly walking on eggshells, knowing that any unusual activity—like a sudden spike in chargebacks—could trigger the termination of your account. It’s a story we hear almost daily: One day, without warning, your account is abruptly closed, leaving your business vulnerable and your Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) store at a standstill. It’s a situation no merchant wants to face, but it’s all too common when dealing with traditional payment processors.

Challenge 3: Frozen Funds

Then there’s the issue of frozen funds. Cash flow is the lifeblood of your business, especially when you’re operating on a platform like Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento), where every transaction counts. Yet, traditional processors can freeze your funds at the first sign of perceived risk, leaving you scrambling to cover expenses, pay suppliers, and keep your operations running. This disruption not only threatens your business but also damages the trust and relationships you’ve worked so hard, sometimes over years of steady operation, to build with your customers and partners.

These experiences are all too familiar for merchants operating in high-risk industries. If you’ve faced similar challenges, you’re not alone. The good news is that there are payment processors out there who understand your needs and are equipped to provide the support and stability your business requires.

This ensures that all your existing Adobe Commerce (Formerly Magento) integrations—whether they involve shopping carts, subscription management, or other third-party systems—remain fully operational and secure.

This approach can translate into significant cost and time savings.
