Why Consider a Merchant Account for Cryptocurrency

Making your comapny as easy as possible to do business is one of the easiest ways to grow revenue. Selling bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies online is a lot easier when customers are given the opportunity to choose the payment method that is best for them.

Cryptocurrency merchant accounts offer the ability to carry out seamless, fast transactions for buying bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. For cryptocurrency brokers and dealers, offering flexible payment choices is therefore more and more important to retaining and growing your customer base. Not offering the easy payment options is a risky business. Given the popularity of card and ACH payments, not accepting them could risk your customers or potential customers going elsewhere to buy bitcoin. 

There are also other advantages to cryptocurrency merchant accounts. Accepting ACH payments as opposed to card payments saves an average of 50-80% on the processing fees of card transactions. Similarly, accepting debit card payments as well as credit card payments means lower risk of chargebacks. Because of this lower risk to receiving banks, debit card payments save cryptocurrency firms money on processing fees.

The Difference Between High Risk Payment Processors and Traditional Banks

Traditional banks consider cryptocurrency firms to be high risk. This is because of the relative infancy of the industry and a general lack of knowledge about the industry. The categorization is also based on the unpredictability of prices in trading bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Because of this, traditional receiving banks find it difficult to understand, assess and monitor transactions of crypto merchants. As a result, instead of embracing the industry and its huge potential, many banks simply reject applications from cryptocurrency merchants.
