Crypto exchange merchant account

Merchant Form

The vast part of European banks rejects to process crypto exchange businesses. The niche-related risks are to blame. As a result, merchants who want to run crypto exchange agencies struggle to find a high-quality payment processor. Hence, they are looking for alternative payment solutions in the face of PSPs. Ikajo International is a PSP that provides beneficial conditions for opening the crypto exchange agency merchant account.

Why crypto exchange agency merchant account is considered high-risk:

As mentioned before, the crypto exchange agency merchant account is considered high-risk. Here is the list of reasons why:

  • No law regulations. Today, there are no fixed laws regulating the crypto business. Hence, the majority of European banks avoid processing crypto exchange agencies. That’s why banks see it equal to processing high-risk businesses [until a merchant holds a Forex license].
  • Instability. Once again, the crypto business is not controlled by any law yet. That means, it totally relies on a human factor (trust).  If Bitcoin falls down, all the other cryptocurrencies are to follow. That leads to uncertainty and vulnerability. Banks are afraid of businesses that might end up broke abruptly.
  • Illegal usage. Crypto is often used for money laundering, buying/selling drugs, porn, e.g. That’s why banks are concerned when it comes to deal with crypto businesses.

What documents one needs to open a crypto exchange agency merchant account:

Here is a list of documents one should collect to accept payments from crypto exchange agency sales:

  • Certificate of Incorporation;
  • Payment processing history;

  • Valid ID copies for all company directors and owners.
