Here’s why a dedicated merchant account is essential:
  • Mainstream providers shut down accounts for adult-related keywords

  • Card networks limit payment acceptance for age-restricted content
  • High-volume creators face reserve holds and rolling payouts
  • Digital adult platforms require special content compliance protocols
