The folks I have hooked up actually seemed to be happy with the information/contact I gave them. If anyone else is interested let me know. I didn't realize I could be the middle man here - as I have just been hoarding my secrets apparently.

Fire me off a PM if you are looking for a high, or even low risk merchant account with a reasonable DC rate.

Now you got me hungry, and I still gotta wait 1 more hour before leaving the office, arg :(
 
I've considered becoming a merchant as well and this thread has opened my eyes to the fact that my initial research may have been incomplete. Brad or someone else, if you don't mind, I'd love a brief overview of why one needs an account like this (it appears there is a chargeback threshold most banks shitcan you for if you cross?), what sorts of businesses require a high-risk account, and what the downsides are of having one.

Good info for an affiliate switching over to be a merchant.

its not as simple as it may seem.

high risk = high probability of fraud, excessive chargebacks, high probability the processor will hold your funds.. no matter how careful you are..

so much shit u have to deal with.. real pain in the ass

So is any rebill business essentially a high risk? Or are there legit ones that are not? I'm thinking one where people buy an initial product and get on a monthly rebill for refills.

Is it just not worth the hassle and should I just use marketing to try to get them to buy on a regular basis?

Continuity is a high risk by nature, unless the customer KNOWS 100% straight up what they are getting into and WANT to be billed every month for the amount you state. For example a 24hour gym membership is an expected continuity deal - so there is no risk.

If you can do that, you will do very well.

Otherwise you are in the boat with everyone else. Be aware if there is no auto-rebill your reorders go down significantly.

Solid advice, thanks Brad. If I did this, it would be for something that I made damned sure buyers knew what they were getting into. Part of the benefit of the product is the cost savings it enables so people shouldn't be too surprised to be charged for it. I have no intention of burying the fact that they will get charged.
 
I would appreciate any help at all re: load balancing multiple High Risk and High Volume merchant accounts. I want you use them for free trial herbal supplements and membership clubs.

Please PM me.

Thank you.
