01
Many Small Tickets, Very Fast
Gaming runs on high transaction velocity and low tickets, which standard fraud rules often flag as suspicious.

Why It's Different
Gaming Payments Come with Their Own Rules.
Most processors see the category and say no, or approve you and shut you down later. Here is what an account built for your business has to handle.
02
Friendly Fraud from Shared Cards
Kids buying items on a parent's card and players disputing in-game purchases drive chargebacks up.
03
Account Takeover is Common
Stolen player accounts and saved cards get used to buy and resell items, creating fraud and disputes.
04
Underwriting Depends on the Model
In-game items, loot-style mechanics, marketplaces and skill-based play are each reviewed differently.

FAQs
Gaming Payment Processing FAQs.
Why is gaming considered high risk?
Gaming is almost all card-not-present, with many small transactions at high speed. That pattern attracts card testing, account takeover and friendly fraud, so banks review gaming merchants closely. Underwriting also depends on how you monetize, such as items, subscriptions or marketplaces.
How do you help with in-game purchase disputes?
Most gaming chargebacks are friendly fraud, like a child using a parent's card or a player who regrets a purchase. We help you use clear receipts, purchase confirmations, 3D Secure, chargeback alerts and parental purchase controls so you can resolve many disputes before they count.
Can I bill subscriptions and season passes?
Yes. Recurring billing supports monthly memberships, battle passes and premium tiers. Card updater and smart retries help reduce failed renewals, and clear cancel terms help keep disputes down.
Can I accept payments from international players?
Multi-currency acceptance is available where permitted, depending on your account setup and where players are located. Tell us your top player regions so we can structure the account for them.
What do I need to apply?
Expect business documents, a voided check or bank letter, processing statements if you have them, a description of your monetization model, your refund policy and links to your game or store. A complete application helps approval decisions move faster.
Do you support real-money gambling or sweepstakes?
We do not promise support for real-money gambling. Skill-based and other gaming models are reviewed case by case, subject to underwriting and applicable law in each place you operate.
