Skin & Hair Care Merchant Account

Secure Skin & Hair Care Payment Processing

Skincare and hair-care brands rely on subscription auto-ship and results-driven marketing that banks classify as high-risk. We support skin and hair care ecommerce.

You will work with a dedicated account manager who helps you choose the right skin and hair care payment solutions and guides you through setup. We can integrate with the software you already use, including your CRM and accounting tools - no technical skills required.

Once you apply, you will complete a short online application covering your business, its size and your payment needs. After review, a member of our skin and hair care payment processing team will reach out to finish setting up your account, typically within 24-48 hours.

FAQ

Skin & Hair Care payment processing - frequently asked questions

Answers to the questions skin and hair care businesses ask us most about accepting payments, fees and getting approved.

How can I accept payments for my skin and hair care business?

We provide omnichannel payment solutions designed for skin and hair care businesses:

Online: A secure payment gateway lets you accept credit card and ACH payments from customers - including one-time transactions, subscription billing and recurring payments.

Retail: For in-person sales we provide POS software and card readers for operations of all sizes.

Over the phone: Virtual terminals make it simple to accept payments over the phone with added convenience and security.

What are the credit card processing fees for skin and hair care businesses?

Processing fees typically range from 1.5% to 3.5%, depending on card brand, transaction type and your industry. Because skin and hair care is classified as high-risk, rates can run higher than average.

Our mission is to offer affordable, transparent processing tailored to skin and hair care businesses, helping you avoid excessive fees while staying compliant with Visa and Mastercard requirements.

What do I need to apply for a skin and hair care merchant account?

To help expedite approval, please gather the following before applying:

  • Government-issued photo ID
  • Signed merchant application
  • Voided check or bank letter
  • Three months of bank statements
  • Three months of processing statements (if available)
  • Details about your skin and hair care business and its products or services

Your website should use HTTPS with a valid SSL certificate and include your legal business name, contact details, a Privacy Policy, Terms & Conditions and a Refund Policy.

Why is skin and hair care considered high-risk?

Skin and hair care is high-risk because of auto-ship subscriptions, free trials, product claims and elevated refund and chargeback rates. That classification is exactly why a specialized processor matters - we underwrite skin and hair care businesses every day and build in the protections needed to keep your account stable.

How long does approval take?

Most skin and hair care merchant accounts are approved within 24-48 hours once we have your completed application and supporting documents. Having your paperwork and a compliant website ready ahead of time is the fastest way to get up and running.
