Your Tech Support Merchant Account

Securing a PC tech support merchant account to be able to accept credit cards online is the obvious next step for any tech support or IT business. Unfortunately, most payment gateway providers and banks black-list these types of businesses because of the increased risk for fraud and chargebacks. Fortunately, there are options to secure a payment gateway for tech support businesses with the right high risk provider and banking partnership.

  • and Many More!

In the tech support and IT industry, you know that being able to accept credit cards online is vital to the success of the operation as clients are often times on the other end of the phone line. If the support representative cannot collect payment via credit card then he/she can’t close the sale. Customers no longer rely on cash and debit transactions to make purchases, especially if it’s a larger amount. Less cash on hand and credit card reward programs have incentivised spending to favor credit purchases.

Tech Support Merchant Accounts are Hard to Place

Selling a service related to IT or tech support has inherent risks. Reasons for this include:

  • Fluctuating ticket sales:Tech support and IT businesses require specialized skills, which leads to higher ticket sales on average than many other industries. On the other hand, quick fixes account to much smaller ticket sizes. That wide range of sales amounts makes it harder for business owners and banks to determine an average transaction size.
  • Fraudulent practices are rampant: Customers and banks both think of the same thing when tech support is mentioned: scams. Pop-ups, malware, and viruses have overshadowed the good side of the tech support business, making it seem much less reliable. In order to combat this, strict underwriting and business practices need to be in place before approval begins.
  • Tech Support is a service: Businesses such as these don’t usually deal with physical products and many times customers barely understand the issues that they are facing when technical support issues come up. Because of this, it is much easier to have a dissatisfied customer. Businesses such as these rely just as much on their ability as their customer service skills. This business style brings up issues that are harder to resolve, which may result in unhappy customers and increased chargeback ratios.

A majority of banks are unable and unwilling to support a payment gateway for online technical support merchants for these reasons. But it doesn’t have to be this way, there are high risk providers out there who have the infrastructure, underwriting, and risk mitigation procedures for IT and tech support merchants.
