Cryptocurrency Merchant Account

Merchant Form

The majority of European banks reject to process crypto merchants. The wide range of possible risks is to blame. As a result, crypto business owners are looking for alternative payment solution in a face of PSPs. Ikajo International offers beneficial conditions for opening a crypto merchant account.

Why cryptocurrency business is considered high-risk.

Cryptocurrency merchant account falls into the category of a high-risk merchant account for the next reasons: 

  • Automatic approval. The crypto payments are anonymous and irreversible. There are no chargebacks as well as no credit card statement. What that means, customers can not apply for a refund.
  • No law regulations. There are no laws regulating the crypto business. Thus, the majority of European banks reject opening a crypto merchant account. They see it equal to trading which is too high of a risk [until merchant holds a Forex license]. 
  • Instability. Once again, the crypto business is not regulated by any law. It totally relies on human trust in it. When bitcoin falls down, all the other cryptocurrencies are to follow. That leads to uncertainty and instability of crypto. 
  • Illegal usage. Even with license crypto is considered high risk due to the numbers of people using crypto to money laundering, buying/selling drugs, e.g.
