Drive Reliable Payments Across Your Automotive Business

In the automotive industry, every transaction must be fast, secure, and compliant. From online part sales to service invoices and showroom vehicle purchases, your payment setup must be able to handle a range of customer behaviors and ticket sizes. That’s where 2Accept comes in. We provide automotive merchants with specialized merchant accounts that support in-store, online, and mobile transactions. You get integrated fraud protection, ACH options, and flexible billing tools—all built with your industry’s needs in mind. Whether you’re managing a repair shop, parts warehouse, or car dealership, our system helps you take payments without delays, risk, or unnecessary friction.

Why Automotive Businesses Need a Purpose-Built Merchant Account

Automotive businesses operate with a mix of one-time high-value purchases, scheduled payments, and service-based billing. This makes them incompatible with generic payment platforms that prioritize low-risk retail or digital-only businesses. Many auto merchants face transaction limits, reserve holds, or shutdowns because:
  • The transaction amount exceeds typical e-commerce thresholds
  • Card networks flag auto parts or vehicle sales as high-ticket or riskier categories
  • There are inconsistent payment flows between in-store and online sales
  • Chargebacks occur from service disputes or warranty disagreements
  • Subscription or recurring maintenance billing isn’t supported
A dedicated merchant account solves these problems by aligning your transaction types with industry-compliant systems. You can accept payments confidently, avoid cash-flow interruptions, and offer customers flexible payment options.
