Cannabis payment questions, answered
Can I get a cannabis merchant account if other processors declined me?
Yes. Cannabis is exactly the kind of business we specialize in. Where generalist processors and aggregators refuse or freeze accounts, we underwrite for the category and target a 90%+ approval-and-live rate for qualified operators.
Will my payments keep working if a processing path goes down?
That is the point of how we set you up. Redundant routing means if one path has an issue, your checkout automatically stays live on another — so your cannabis sales keep flowing instead of going dark.
Can I accept payments online and in person?
Yes. You can take cannabis payments online, on subscription, and in person under one relationship, plus modern options like Apple Pay, Google Pay and more where they fit your customers.
How fast can a cannabis account go live?
Most qualified merchants are approved fast — typical turnaround is around 24 hours once we have your details. A specialist maps the fastest compliant path to live payments for your business.
