Offshore Merchant Account

So often our clients call looking for an offshore merchant account thinking this is a less desirable option than their onshore option. Nothing could be further from the truth in fact.  Generally, offshore merchant accounts don’t have the many limits imposed by onshore merchant accounts. Typically, there are no monthly billing limits, and often the bank rates are just slightly higher than onshore banks. Also, very often the tolerance for charge-backs is much higher at offshore merchant account banking institutions.

So what does this all mean exactly? Generally, clients say they should have made inquires at offshore providers before they even considered an onshore provider. Especially with the economic downturn in the United States, U.S. banks are often all too quick to terminate a client for even the slightest infraction of the excepted norms for Visa and Master Card processing. Needless to say, recently we have seen many calls from clients who have been terminated by their banks for charge-back rates slightly above one percent. This leaves a merchant with no ability to make a living for him or herself.

The good news is www.OffshoreShield.com can often help in these situations. We serve only our clients interest, by facilitating the process by which our clients can get approved for a merchant account for the same or slightly higher bank-rates than was possible onshore. Also, clients always seem amazed at the fact that monthly billing volume is generally never a problem with offshore banks.
