Pornography (excluding under 18's), Sexual Encounters, Massage Parlours, Escort Directories, Escort Agencies, Dogging, Cottaging, Swinging etc. If your business is sex toys then we can offer you one of our standard accounts!

* Established Business?

If you are already trading online we can offer you an adult account and pretty much guarantee to beat your current rate (processing statements required).

* New Businesses / Start-up?

If you are a new business then the banks that we use for our adult accounts will need to see the following:

  • Estimated turnover of at least £10,000 per month
  • Solid business plan to be presented as part of the initial application
  • Functioning website (this can include a BETA site)

    Please be aware that without the above points being met we will unfortunately be unable to offer you an account.

Providing annual membership or subscription services?

Unfortunately the banks that we use for our merchant accounts, as well as Visa and MasterCard, are refusing these types of businesses. The issue is with it being annual payments (what happens if a customer pays for a years membership but the business goes under after 6 months?) and not so much the amount of the transaction. The problem worsens if 100% of the business is based on annual memberships or subscriptions.

We will allow annual memberships, paid annually, where this makes up a small percentage of the business e.g. 20% otherwise we can only allow annual memberships that are debited either monthly or quarterly from the customers credit or debit card.

* Already have a gateway in place?

If you already have a gateway in place you can use this with our merchant account. However you may need to integrate this yourself. Don't worry, as usual we supply all the relevant guides and manuals.
