Industries We Serve
WebPayMe connects merchants across a broad spectrum of industries with specialised payment processing solutions. Whether your business is considered low risk or high risk, we have acquiring partners equipped to support your payment needs.
Ecommerce and Retail
Ecommerce remains the largest merchant category globally, accounting for over 20 per cent of all retail sales worldwide according to recent market data. WebPayMe works with ecommerce merchants of all sizes, from boutique online stores to high-volume multi-channel retailers. Our acquiring partners support major card schemes including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover, as well as popular digital wallets such as PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.
For ecommerce businesses, key considerations include chargeback management, fraud prevention, and multi-currency support for cross-border sales. WebPayMe's intake process helps ecommerce merchants identify acquiring partners that offer integrated fraud screening tools, 3D Secure authentication, and real-time transaction monitoring. Whether you sell physical goods, digital products, or a combination, our network includes acquirers experienced with your specific business model and fulfilment approach.
CBD, Hemp, and Cannabis
The CBD and hemp industry presents unique payment processing challenges due to the legal grey areas surrounding cannabis-derived products. While the 2018 Farm Bill legalised hemp-derived CBD with less than 0.3 per cent THC at the federal level in the United States, many domestic acquiring banks remain hesitant to process for this industry. WebPayMe connects CBD and hemp merchants with acquiring partners who understand the regulatory landscape and have established compliance frameworks for this category.
Merchants in this space should expect enhanced due diligence requirements, including product lab reports, compliance with state and federal regulations, and clear disclaimers on their website. Processing for CBD typically involves higher discount rates and reserve requirements compared to standard ecommerce, reflecting the regulatory complexity. WebPayMe's network includes both domestic and offshore acquirers equipped to handle CBD, hemp-derived products, and ancillary cannabis businesses such as equipment manufacturers and testing laboratories.
Forex, Trading, and Financial Services
Forex and trading businesses require specialised payment processing due to the high transaction values, regulatory oversight, and elevated chargeback risk associated with financial services. WebPayMe works with forex brokers, trading education platforms, signal providers, and related financial service businesses to secure merchant accounts with acquirers experienced in this vertical. These acquirers understand the unique compliance requirements, including KYC procedures for traders, transaction monitoring for suspicious activity, and adherence to relevant financial regulations.
Key requirements for forex merchants include proper licensing from recognised regulatory bodies, transparent trading terms and risk disclosures, and robust customer verification processes. Acquirers in this space typically require detailed financial statements, processing history, and evidence of regulatory compliance. WebPayMe's intake process helps forex merchants present comprehensive applications that address the specific concerns of acquiring banks in the financial services sector.
Nutraceuticals and Supplements
The nutraceutical and dietary supplement industry spans vitamins, minerals, herbal supplements, sports nutrition products, and weight management formulations. This category is considered moderate to high risk by most acquirers due to regulatory scrutiny from agencies such as the FDA and FTC, as well as elevated chargeback rates stemming from subscription billing models and customer dissatisfaction with product efficacy. WebPayMe connects supplement merchants with acquiring partners who understand the specific challenges of this category.
Successful supplement merchants typically maintain compliant product labelling, clear terms for subscription billing, transparent refund policies, and third-party testing documentation. Acquirers will review website content carefully for any claims that could be considered misleading or unsubstantiated. WebPayMe's intake team works with nutraceutical merchants to ensure applications demonstrate compliance with applicable regulations, including proper structure-function claims and adherence to good manufacturing practices (GMP) standards.
Digital Goods and Subscription Services
Digital goods merchants — including software-as-a-service (SaaS) platforms, digital content providers, online education, gaming, and streaming services — face distinct payment processing challenges. High customer acquisition costs combined with subscription billing models mean that even moderate chargeback rates can significantly impact profitability. Digital goods merchants also contend with higher fraud risk since there is no physical shipping address to verify and no tangible product to repossess in a dispute.
Acquirers evaluating digital goods merchants look for clear billing descriptors, transparent recurring payment disclosures, easy cancellation flows, and robust fraud detection systems. WebPayMe connects digital goods merchants with acquiring partners offering recurring billing support, dunning management tools for failed payments, and chargeback alert services that allow merchants to refund or resolve issues before they escalate to formal disputes. Our network includes acquirers experienced with SaaS, membership sites, online courses, and content subscription platforms across multiple geographies.
Additional Industries We Support
Beyond the categories above, WebPayMe's acquiring network supports a wide range of additional industries including travel and hospitality, ticket sales and events, adult entertainment and dating, telecommunications, debt collection, nonprofit and charitable organisations, and business-to-business services. Each industry has unique risk characteristics and compliance requirements, and our intake process is designed to capture the specific details needed to match merchants with appropriate acquiring partners.
If your industry is not listed here, we encourage you to submit an application anyway. WebPayMe continuously expands its network of acquiring partners across new industry verticals. Our team reviews each application individually and will work to find a solution for legitimate businesses in any industry that requires card payment acceptance. The application process is free, confidential, and places no obligation on the merchant. Let us help you find the payment processing infrastructure your business needs to succeed.
