Gaming Affiliates & Referrals

Gaming Affiliates & Referrals businesses are classified as high-risk due to elevated chargeback rates, regulatory complexity, and reputational risk for acquiring banks. Traditional processors often decline these merchants, requiring specialized high-risk payment solutions.

Required documentation typically includes business formation documents, government-issued ID, bank statements (3-6 months), processing history (if applicable), industry-specific licenses, and compliance documentation. Specific requirements vary based on your business model and risk profile.
