Merchant accounts for low risk services and products

Most of the services and goods that are supposed to be paid for through the network do not involve any risks for any of the parties to the transaction. Banks see connecting such virtual stores as the most attractive and least expensive.

The field of e-commerce introduces the concept of “low risk” for such services and products. The main characteristic, based on which products can be attributed to this category, is a small percentage of buyers who leave applications for a refund.
