I need a Merchant Account

company outside the US

I am seeking for the reliable third party merchant account and payment gateway that they can also provide us the payment gateway interface and virtual terminal and can be payout in weekly basis. Do you have any idea?

Another way is having our own merchant. How about apply our own merchant in USA? If we are international company and registered the US Corporation like in Delaware and open the US Bank, how many chance that US Bank will allow us to have merchant account?

Tried Worldpay?

Also, some of your local banks might be able to give you the merchant account / facilities that you need.

Check with ChronoPay as well, they can provide you merchant account, their charges is lowest comparatively.

If you can get your own United States bank account, then you might be able to get a United States merchant account. This discount rate is about 4% and their is usually a 5-day ACH hold on funds. Your name will appear on the consumer statement though.

Check with your local bank - some of them have partnerships with US banks to help satisfy the YKYC (you know your customer) regulation. Also check out e-trade and Valis. Some merchants have had success in opening a bank account with them

Thank you very much, Corey. If I am a foreigner (Non-US Residence) and would like to have US Bank Merchant Account, I can establish the US Corporation through ValisInternational and open the US Bank and apply for Merchant Account. How many percent that would be successful on applying the merchant account?

[Corey Bryant]

I think you are asking what percentage that have applied are successful? It depends on what company you sign up with, etc. Most providers will not accept you but there are a couple.

And you cannot be doing any high risk (gambling, adult-related, etc).

Our company is hotel reservations but long-established. What do you think that it is high risk category? I have heard a lot of that travel category is high risk, if so , do you have any idea to apply for merchant account? I think every industry has the fraudalent and risk.
