When offering services like Social Media Marketing (SMM). Many processors have stringent guidelines in accepting such bussness. and some may disapprove instantly. This guide provides an overview of an approach often not discussed.Steps
1. Create a Compliant Website
The first step is to design a website that aligns with the policies of your chosen payment processor. For example, you might create a site selling common, low-risk products or services like flowers, car washes, or other universally accepted offerings.
Ensure that:
- The website appears professional and genuine.
- All payment options and legal compliance elements are in place.
- There are no connections (e.g., email or metadata) linking this site to another business that might be non-compliant.
Submit this website for review to the payment processor. If the site meets all criteria, approval is highly likely.
2. Advanced Payment Routing
Once your payment processor account is approved, you may consider integrating payment routing for your other business activities. For instance:
- Use a developer to set up a redirect system that processes payments through the approved site.if he is experienced tell him/her you want to implement (middleware redirect)
- Payments from the original service (e.g., SMM site) redirect to the approved site, where they are captured.
- After payment is processed, the system redirects users to a blank page on the approved site, which then forwards them to the service site.
Important Notes:
- Implementing such a system can require technical expertise and mine costs me $150 2 years ago
- in other words your basically circumventing payment processor policies and can can result in account suspension or financial loss.if done poorly.
