If the merchant/applicant has a previous history with Square, Stripe or PayPal (etc.) we can request a waiver.

The acquirer processor is the link between the merchant and the card networks. An acquirer processor authorizes transactions and receives transaction settlement information. They also create the database of payments, or system of record, that ultimately means everyone is paid.
These unique capabilities allow us to underwrite, approve and provision merchants classified as “high-risk” in a manner that traditional payment processors lack the ability to support.
