Unlock Reliable Payment Processing for Real Estate Transactions

Process down payments, service fees, or recurring rental payments without the friction of traditional banking. At 2Accept, we specialize in high-risk merchant services, including those for the real estate industry. You’ll receive approval within 24 to 48 hours and gain access to a fully optimized gateway, designed to integrate seamlessly with your business model.

Why Are Real Estate Businesses Labeled as High-Risk?

Despite being a cornerstone of the economy, real estate businesses face elevated scrutiny when applying for merchant accounts. Processors often consider them high risk due to complex billing structures, regulatory oversight, and high transaction values. Here’s why most providers hesitate and why 2Accept says yes.

• Licensing and State Compliance
  Real estate professionals operate under different legal frameworks in each state. Many processors cannot verify licensing quickly enough and deny the application prematurely.
• High-Ticket Transactions
  Large payments for deposits, property-related services, or consultation fees often trigger holds or rejection under automated underwriting.
• Service Disputes and Chargebacks
  Real estate services involve third parties like lenders, inspectors, or agents, leading to higher chances of disputed charges without strong documentation.
• Subscription and Recurring Models
  Property management firms often use recurring payments for rent collection or HOA dues, requiring advanced fraud filters and billing controls.
• Lead Generation and Marketing Flags
  If your platform includes real estate leads or advertising, standard processors may flag it as a risk due to previous abuse in other industries.
