Why Durango Merchant Services

For a Low Risk Merchant Account?

When it comes to credit card processing, certain industries are considered low risk, while others are considered high risk. Low risk industries are generally those that have a low incidence of fraud and chargebacks, and as a result, they typically pay lower processing fees and have fewer restrictions on their accounts.

Some examples of low risk industries for credit card processing include:

  • Retail: Physical stores that sell tangible goods, such as clothing or electronics, are typically considered low risk.

  • Professional services: Industries like law firms, dental offices, and accounting practices are also generally considered low risk.

  • Non-profits: Charitable organizations that accept donations via credit card are often considered low risk.

  • B2B: Business-to-business transactions, where one company is selling products or services to another company, are often considered low risk.

It’s important to note that while these industries are generally considered low risk, every business is unique and may be subject to different processing fees and restrictions based on a variety of factors. Additionally, even low risk industries may still experience occasional fraud or chargebacks, so it’s important for businesses to take steps to minimize risk and protect themselves.

Moderate Risk Merchant Accounts

So, what exactly is a moderate risk business? In the world of credit card processing, risk refers to the likelihood that a transaction will be declined or result in a chargeback. Moderate risk businesses are those that fall somewhere in the middle – they're not as low risk as businesses that sell tangible goods, but they're not as high risk as businesses that sell digital products or services.

Examples of moderate risk businesses might include subscription-based services, online ticket sales, or e-commerce stores that sell a mix of physical and digital products. These businesses may face a slightly higher risk of chargebacks or declined transactions, but with low chargeback rates and good business practices they can still successfully find good rate for credit card processing.

One thing merchants should do to make sure they don't slip into the high risk category is utilize robust fraud prevention tools, such as address verification, CVV verification, and 3D Secure. These tools can help protect you and your customers from fraudulent activity and reduce the risk of chargebacks.

Durango Merchant Services is here to offer guidance and support for your moderate risk business. Just make sure to choose one that doesn't take you to the bank – after all, running a business is stressful enough without having to deal with lack of transparency!
