High Risk Means Riskier Business

Chargebacks are a major concern for High Risk merchants, and is one of the main factors in lowered approval ratings. We've teamed with Ethoca and Verifi to make Chargebacks a thing of the past.

Verifi

Verifi reduces merchant risk by improving chargeback prevention, and combating fraud without affecting customers and sales. Merchants can focus on profits, rather than fighting to retain their hard-earned revenue.

Ethoca

Ethoca's Alert System reduces card-not-present fraud by creating a bridge between merchants, and card issuing banks, giving merchants the power to prevent chargebacks. Get chargeback notifications in hours, instead of weeks.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Are Merchant Cash Advances? +

Having a merchant account allows an account holder to take advantage of merchant cash advances. When a merchant is approved for an advance, the business agrees to receive a lump sum of cash in exchange for an agreed-upon percentage of future credit card sales.

How Much Does It Cost to Process Credit Card Transactions? +

Pricing varies depending the merchant’s industry, past credit card processing history, the type of business seeking the account, average ticket sales, and average transaction volumes.

Do You Work With Merchants Who Have Poor Credit Scores or Have Had Merchant Accounts Terminated? +

Yes, EMB works with merchants who are building their credit, as well as those who have poor credit. EMB also approves merchants that have no credit card processing history and businesses that have lost their merchant accounts due to high chargebacks.

What Factors Are Used to Determine a Business’ Risk Level? +

Several factors influence a merchant’s risk level. Though only one factor likely will not get a merchant classified as high risk, a combination of these may: business size, location, and industry, credit score, credit card processing history, a industry’s reputation for excessive chargebacks, a prior history of high chargeback ratios, and whether a merchant exclusively sells online.

What is a Virtual Terminal? +

Virtual terminals are stationed on a merchant’s website, making it easy for customers to make a payment or purchase online. Merchants or a payment processor can easily set up virtual terminals, so online businesses can accept credit and debit card and e-check transactions.

What are Interchange Fees? +

A merchant account is a business account with an acquiring bank. Without this business account, which actually works more like a line of credit, a merchant cannot accept and process credit and debit card transactions. Businesses need a merchant account to accept major credit cards via a static point-of-sale terminal, mobile card reader, or through a virtual payment gateway.

How Long Does It Take To Get Approved for a Merchant Account? +

After filling out EMB’s simple online application and submitting any necessary, requested documents, many merchants get approved within 24 and 48 hours.

Do You Work With High-Risk Businesses? +

EMB specializes in working with high-risk merchants. EMB works with many merchants, including but not limited to businesses in these industries: gambling and gaming, adult entertainment, nutraceuticals, vaping and e-cigarettes, electronics, tech support, travel, high-end furniture, weight loss programs, calling cards, e-books and software, and telecommunications.
