Start with category acceptance
Share your live website, product labels and an accurate description of what you sell. Do not describe research supply as a different business to secure an account.
Providers publish different prohibited and restricted categories. Stripe, for example, lists incorrectly labeled research chemicals among prohibited products. Its rules do not establish eligibility for your business; ask the provider to review it directly.
What to confirm before signing
- Accepted products and buyers. Have the provider review the actual catalog and storefront.
- Total cost. Request rates, transaction fees, monthly fees and termination terms.
- Reserves and payouts. Understand how much money may be held and when it is released.
- Account limits. Confirm approved volume, order values and reporting requirements.
- The account holder. Your business must be accurately identified in the approved arrangement.
Keep the application accurate
Your website, labels and application should describe the same business. Do not accept an unrelated merchant category code or an arrangement that conceals the actual seller.
How we help
We make payments introductions and help organize the documents a provider requests. We do not process payments, act as a payment facilitator or guarantee approval. The provider decides and sets the terms.
