Delta-8, the isomer cousin of the better known Delta-9, has surged in popularity in recent years, especially in states where marijuana is illegal. However, some states are starting to regulate the legality of Delta-8. This action makes delta-8 high-risk, and merchants selling this product are finding it increasingly difficult to get approved for a merchant account.
Luckily, at International Payments Processing, we have banks and payment gateway solutions for most Delta 8 THC businesses.

High-Risk Payment Methods for Delta 8
Traditional payment processors are not able to handle the challenges Delta-8 merchants experience on a regular basis. High-risk merchants usually have higher chargebacks and face stricter regulations than other, more standard businesses. If you decide to work with payment processors, who are inexperienced with this industry, your account can be shut down at any time. Meaning you must start the entire merchant account application process over again from the beginning. This consequence can ruin customer relationships and hurt your business.
Therefore, Delta-8 merchants are recommended to use a specialized high-risk merchant service provider, who offers different payment types, including debit & credit cards, and cryptocurrency.
Furthermore, Delta-8 merchants should choose the payment processors who help them prevent chargebacks and fraud attacks.
At IPP, we have the technology to increase your approvals and reduce card fraud. We have a ‘Smart Fraud Scoring’ system to check over 16,000 data points to detect potential fraud. Our 3DS2 authentication can also identify and ensure PSD2 compliance.
