A high monthly volume will require additional information to approve your account. A low monthly volume may be easier to approve, but if you exceed that volume in actual processing, then your funds can be subject to withholding by our back end processors for fraud mitigation. There may be cases due to your credit, type of business or bankruptcy, where you will not qualify for the above listed rates and fees. In this case, you will be notified and sent new paperwork to sign and send back. The material changes may involve a monthly minimum, reserve account, statement fees, and/or different discount rates and transaction fees.
