Why You Need a Non-Profit Merchant Account
A non-profit merchant account enables your organization to accept credit card payments for donations, event fees, and other transactions. However, obtaining one through traditional processors like PayPal, Square, or Stripe can be a challenge. These platforms often classify non-profits as high-risk, leading to potential account freezes or even closures. That’s where High-Risk Match steps in, offering tailored non-profit credit card processing solutions specifically designed for your organization’s needs.
Benefits of Non-Profit Payment Processing
Choosing a payment processor that understands the unique challenges of non-profit organizations is critical. With High-Risk Match, you avoid the high fees and potential disruptions that come with traditional processors. Here’s how we support your organization:
- Lower Processing Fees: Our solutions are designed to offer the best rates for non-profits, so you can retain more of your donations for your cause.
- Flexibility: Accept donations online, via mobile, in person, or through a variety of payment methods, making it easier for your donors to contribute.
- Consistency: Unlike standard processors that may flag or shut down accounts without warning, High-Risk Match provides a reliable platform for you to continue accepting payments smoothly.
How Donors Benefit from Using Non-Profit Merchant Services
Your donors want to feel confident that their contributions are secure and processed efficiently. A non-profit merchant account provides an enhanced donation experience for your supporters:

- Simplified Process: With High-Risk Match, donors don’t need to worry about long, confusing payment forms. Our streamlined donation pages make giving fast and straightforward.
Secure Payment Processing for High-Risk Non-Profits
Non-profits are often considered high-risk due to the nature of donations, unpredictable cash flow, and industry complexities. But with High-Risk Match, you get specialized non-profit payment processing designed to protect your organization from fraud, chargebacks, and other financial risks.
We understand that the financial security of your donors is paramount. That’s why our systems include:

Steps to Apply for a Non-Profit Merchant Account
Setting up your non-profit merchant account with High-Risk Match is simple. Here’s what you’ll need to provide during the application process:
- Personal Information: Provide your full name, business address, and contact information.
- Business Credentials: Supply documentation that verifies your organization’s non-profit status, such as your Employer Identification Number (EIN) or 501(c)(3) documentation.
- Banking Information: Both personal and organizational bank details, including statements for up to three months, may be required.
- Credit History: While your personal credit score will be reviewed, it won’t necessarily determine your eligibility, as we specialize in working with high-risk organizations.
- Online Presence: To expedite the process, share your non-profit’s website or any social media presence to demonstrate your credibility and compliance.
Once you’ve submitted your information, our underwriting team will work to get your account approved swiftly, ensuring you can start accepting donations and payments as soon as possible.
