20+ years in high-risk. Creative, multi-bank placements when others say no — and fast onboarding for low-risk deals.
Miami's fast-growing e-commerce, travel, and international business community makes it a natural hub for agents working high-risk and multi-bank placements. Centurion Payment Services brings 20+ years of high-risk experience to ISOs and independent sales agents in Miami, FL — we're the ace in your back pocket when your primary processor says no.
Apply to Centurion's ISO & agent program. We support ISOs, sub-ISOs, referral partners, and independent agents in Miami, FL with a partner portal, digital merchant applications, and direct access to underwriting.
Yes. We regularly review travel, nutraceuticals, e-commerce and other high-risk merchants through multi-bank placements. All accounts are subject to underwriting review and approval.
Send us the file. With more than 20 years in high-risk, we look at reserves, split-volume setups, descriptor strategy, and alternative acquirers to find a path — never a guarantee, but often a yes when others said no.
For qualified low-risk merchants, our digital application, e-signature, and automated underwriting deliver fast decisions — with a real merchant account, dedicated support, and a residual you own.
All merchant accounts are subject to underwriting review and approval.
Travel carries delayed-delivery risk because the service happens weeks or months after the charge. Acquirers look at booking windows, supplier relationships, and refund exposure; we negotiate reserves that fit the merchant's cash flow instead of freezing it.
Nutraceutical files live and die on offer structure. Free-trial and negative-option models draw heavy scrutiny, so we look at billing descriptors, cancellation flows, refund policy, and chargeback history — and place straight-sale and continuity offers with banks that understand them.
Not every deal is high risk. For clean retail, e-commerce, restaurant, and B2B merchants, our digital application and automated underwriting deliver fast decisions — so you can win against Stripe and Square while keeping a real merchant account and your residual.
Telehealth merchants — especially those prescribing — need licensed providers, pharmacy partnerships, and HIPAA-aware operations. We help agents frame these files so underwriters see a compliant medical business, not just a risk code.
AI companion, content, and API platforms are a newer risk category. Underwriters want to understand content policies, usage-based billing, and fraud controls — we help agents explain the model clearly to get a fair review.
Adult and creator platforms require age and identity verification, content moderation, and card-brand registration (Visa VIRP / Mastercard specialty merchant). We work with banks that accept the category and help agents prepare the compliance documentation upfront.
Dating merchants combine subscription billing with elevated fraud and chargeback risk. Strong KYC, transparent auto-renewal disclosures, and fraud tooling are key — and we place these accounts with acquirers that support them long-term.
THCA, CBD and hemp merchants need an acquirer with a documented appetite for the vertical, current certificates of analysis, compliant labeling, and a clean website without medical claims. We help agents package COAs, product lists, and fulfillment details up front so underwriting can move without back-and-forth.
Send us your Miami merchant — new deal, a decline from another ISO, or a merchant being terminated. Include statements, processing history, and the website.
Our team reviews the file before it goes to a bank, flags gaps, and tells you what the acquirer will ask for — no surprises.
We match the merchant to the right acquirer, negotiating reserves, split volume, or multi-bank placement when needed.
Digital boarding, e-signature, and real-time status in the partner portal. Residuals are reported transparently every month.

Bring us the deals that stall elsewhere: merchants on the MATCH/TMF list, new incorporations without processing history, businesses with chargeback ratios above 1%, merchants facing termination or held funds, and verticals your current processor won't board. Bring us your clean low-risk deals too — you'll get fast onboarding, competitive buy rates, and the same transparency on every account in your FL portfolio.
