Pollen has personnel that specialize in providing merchant accounts to merchants that have been classified as high risk by other merchant processors.
A merchant processor will consider a merchant account as high risk for a variety of reasons, some of which include:
-
High chargebacks or increasing number of chargebacks
-
A previous merchant account application denial by a merchant processor
-
High Risk industry such as high ticket sales, online pharmaceuticals or debt collection
-
Poor credit score or bad business credit
