Payment Processing Challenges for Credit Repair Businesses
Understanding the unique obstacles credit repair merchants face and how Kosipay solves them
High-Risk Classification
Credit repair businesses are automatically classified as high-risk by traditional banks and payment processors, leading to frequent account rejections or sudden terminations. Kosipay specializes in high-risk industries and provides stable, long-term processing solutions specifically for credit repair companies.
Regulatory Scrutiny
The credit repair industry faces intense regulatory oversight from the FTC, CFPB, and state agencies. Our payment solutions include compliance tools and ongoing support to help you navigate the Credit Repair Organizations Act (CROA) and other regulations affecting credit repair businesses.
Excessive Fees
Many processors charge credit repair businesses exorbitant rates and fees, taking advantage of the limited options available. Kosipay offers transparent, competitive pricing with no hidden fees or unexpected charges, keeping more money in your business.
Chargeback Vulnerability
Credit repair businesses face higher chargeback rates due to lengthy service periods, customer misunderstandings about results, and regulatory compliance issues. Our advanced chargeback prevention tools and customer verification systems help protect your business from disputes while maintaining account stability.
Banking Restrictions
Credit repair companies struggle to find banking partners willing to support their operations. Kosipay has established relationships with banks that understand the credit repair industry and are committed to serving compliant businesses, providing you with stable, long-term processing solutions.
Processing Instability
Credit repair merchants often face sudden account terminations or freezes due to risk reassessments or policy changes. Our multi-bank network provides redundancy and stability for your business, ensuring you can continue accepting payments even if a particular processor changes their policies.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about credit repair merchant accounts and payment processing
Why are credit repair businesses considered high-risk by payment processors?
Credit repair businesses are classified as high-risk due to several factors: regulatory scrutiny under the Credit Repair Organizations Act (CROA), higher-than-average chargeback rates, extended service delivery periods, industry reputation concerns from past bad actors, and complex regulatory compliance requirements. Kosipay understands these challenges and provides specialized solutions to help legitimate, compliant credit repair businesses succeed.
What are the processing rates for credit repair businesses?
Processing rates for credit repair merchants typically range from 4.0% to 6.5% plus a small per-transaction fee, depending on your business model, processing volume, and risk profile. While these rates are higher than those for traditional retail, they reflect the specialized banking relationships required for credit repair processing. Kosipay offers competitive, transparent pricing with no hidden fees, and we provide custom quotes based on your specific business needs.
Do you require a rolling reserve for credit repair merchant accounts?
Some credit repair merchant accounts may require a rolling reserve, which is a percentage of your processing volume held in reserve to cover potential chargebacks. Not all accounts require reserves, and we work to minimize or eliminate reserves when possible based on your business history and risk profile. When required, reserves typically range from 5-15% and are fully returned to you after a predetermined period, usually 6-12 months.
What documentation is required to apply for a credit repair merchant account?
For a credit repair merchant account application, you'll typically need: business license and formation documents, bank statements (3-6 months), processing statements (if applicable), valid ID for all owners with 25%+ ownership, sample client agreements with CROA-compliant disclosures, cancellation policy details, refund policy, evidence of compliance procedures, and website or marketing materials. Our application specialists will guide you through the exact requirements.
How do your payment solutions help with CROA compliance?
Our payment solutions for credit repair businesses include several CROA compliance features: integrated disclosure management to ensure proper disclosures before charging clients, documentation of the three-day right to cancel, performance-based billing tools to ensure you only charge for services actually performed, electronic signature capture and storage for compliant contracts, and record-keeping systems to document all customer interactions and service delivery, helping you maintain full regulatory compliance.
How do you help credit repair merchants prevent chargebacks?
Our credit repair merchant accounts include specialized chargeback prevention tools, including clear billing descriptors, detailed service documentation, electronic signature capture for agreements, proper disclosure management, customer communication systems, and advanced fraud detection to minimize disputes. We also provide dispute management services with industry-specific response strategies and evidence templates designed specifically for credit repair service disputes.
