Why Use PayBlox's Merchant Accounts?

Many business owners are declined by mainstream payment processors because their personal credit doesn’t meet rigid underwriting requirements – not because their businesses are “unsafe.”

Late payments, collections, charge-offs, bankruptcies, or past financial hardship can trigger automatic declines even your business itself is healthy and generating revenue.

PayBlox specializes in helping businesses with credit challenges access legitimate, stable merchant accounts. We work with payment processors that underwrite based on business performance, not just credit scores, and offer solutions designed to grow with you – not shut you down.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is a Bad Credit Merchant Account?

A bad credit merchant account is a type of merchant account specific to business owners with bad credit history. Mainstream payment processors tend to place these types of business owners in a high-risk category, making it difficult to obtain a merchant account to run a business and accept payments. The types of businesses this can impact are entreprenuers rebuilding credit, small businesses and startups, business owners who recently had filed bankruptcy, or businesses with a history of being declined by payment processors.
