Verified Merchant Checkout Profile

Acceptance is a business review, not a signup form

Card acceptance sits behind an underwriting decision: what you sell, the expected chargeback profile, who owns the entity, and whether the settlement bank account belongs to that entity. Reviewers compare every one of those fields against each other, and a mismatch between the trading name and the bank holder is the single most common reason a merchant file is returned. These profiles are assembled so the whole chain reconciles, and live keys are only issued once underwriting closes.

Keeping the account healthy after handover

Underwriting does not stop at approval; risk teams keep watching the dispute ratio, refund rate and descriptor complaints. The onboarding support week covers how to set your statement descriptor, what refund policy wording reduces disputes, and the ramp curve that avoids a volume-triggered review. Merchants who ramp gradually keep their reserve terms; merchants who spike rarely do.
