Are you a high risk merchant?

As a high risk merchant processing through a United States based processor, your threshold for chargebacks and other no-no’s in the processing world will be much lower, you’ll be held to a higher standard than other merchants, and kept on a shorter leash. By having an offshore merchant account to backup your onshore account, you can ensure there will not be a lapse in business, as your processing will not falter if your onshore processor shuts you down unexpectedly. Additionally, there will be instances that it will be beneficial to process through your offshore account vs. your onshore account, whether that be due to processing caps, higher tickets with chargeback issues, or a multitude of other reasons.
