Adult Dating Site & Credit Card Processing

Hi,

We are launching a new startup - it's not really a dating site but it fall into this category. All CC processing companies put dating sites into red/high risk category and it costs up-to $500 (for example at ccbill) just to create an account. We want to test the idea and see if it works. Spending this kind of money is not an option. Paypal of course will never accept this website, so are there any other tested options? So far authorize .net looks the best (still not very cheap and no idea if they will be ok with a dating site).

Thanks,

 

maybe you can try hiding it through stripe

 

Talk to Segpay.com. They can help you out. They are a 3rd party processor similar to CCBill. The fee depends on where you are incorporated. If your company is based in the US, there is a fee. If non-US, there is not one.

 

Why does paypal not affiliate with dating sites?

 

Highrisk i would guess.

I would not try to trick stripe. Stripe have a very good service but they will find out you will be asked to leave within 1-7 days.

OP: If you need help i might be abel to help you PM me your skype.

 

I am an active member of few dating sites but I am not so familiar with credit processing of a dating site. Here is an article on credit processing on dating site. I hope it may help you.
