Offshore merchant accounts are trading accounts that acquiring banks issue to merchants of high risk businesses. These banks are located in low-tax jurisdictions for merchants that wish to accept major credit cards such as Visa and Mastercard. Merchants pursue offshore banks for a myriad of reasons — they sell in high volume, they trade in multiple currencies and/or they prefer to register their business in another country.
Benefits of offshore merchant accounts
As stated above, offshore merchant accounts typically have generous or even no volume caps — ideal solutions for merchants in the industries of CBD, nutraceuticals and multi-level marketing. Other benefits include:
- Fewer tax restrictions
- Trading in multiple currencies
- Business co-owner does not have a social security number
