What grade does your processor get?
Four quick questions you can answer from memory. You'll see a letter grade, what you're overpaying each month and your best plan. No statement, no account numbers.
Questions we get from vape & smoke shops.
Are vape shops high risk?
Usually medium to high, depending on what you sell and whether you sell online. We underwrite both.
What do I need to apply?
Your tobacco retail license, business details, a voided check, and recent processing statements if you have them.
Can I use cash discount pricing?
In most states, yes, with clear signs and receipts. Connecticut treats a card price above the advertised price as a surcharge, so we check your state first.
