I'm selling digital products in the video game industry, rejected by all processors because of copyright issues.

I found two processors that seem to allow this industry, but only for higher volume, I think it was $40k+/month.

I'll be doing ~$2-3k/month in sales to begin with, and maybe scale to over $10k/month. Profit margin is over 50%.

What is the best strategy for lower volume card processing at the moment?

Customers will not be willing to use some weird card->crypto method, or payment links.

I might be willing to partner or pay a % of sales to someone who handles everything payment processing related, but I can't pay anything upfront since that hasn't gone great in the past.
 
How about you make it look like your shop ships video games as DVDs and then apply. Later, you just change it to downloads.

Normally, they only check once for approval and then never again unless you have issues or charge backs.

From what I've seen, they either got into Stripe or similar processors years ago and never closed down (so grandfathered in), or they have high volume and use one of the very few solutions that accept this industry. And some of them seem to have cloaking setups.

If no luck you can't come around with some cloaking or other stuff like.

How do you did it? I would like to know some details if you don't mind. Do you go with Stripe or PayPal ?

Have you tried 2co.com and some of the other mainstream processors?

So what you are selling isn't legal and is violating copyright's ? is that the reason for your problem?

It's in the grey area. The game creators could argue that I'm infringing on their copyright, but it's been years and they haven't sent a cease and desist or anything.

Currently working on a solution.

Some more mainstream processors can work if you do $50k+ per month in sales.
 
Those are some hefty Visa processing fees, ranging from 8% up to 15% ”“ it looks a bit like what CCBill charges. This seems to be a Russian payment provider, at least from the looks of it. So unless it's an ultra high-risk or completely impossible business to place, I wouldn't go down that route.

But otherwise, it's just a matter of trying to run something through and seeing how it works.

Thread 'List of High Risk payment processor I just found!'

Sep 6, 2024
I have just put together this small list of High Payment processors, which you can find below. It is posted here in the Mentor Group Gold so that we can preserve them for as long as possible and to prevent them from being overrun, which would make it much more difficult for the rest of us to get an account with them.

I haven't had the chance to test them yet, other than doing some research on them and adding them to my list so that I can try them out one by one.
