Payment solutions for cannabis ancillary services

How each solution supports cannabis ancillary services

See what each option adds to the way your business takes and tracks payments.

High-Risk Merchant Account

For cannabis ancillary services: Present your model for permitted ancillary goods and business services to specialist processing partners, with product and fulfillment documentation prepared. Roots Payments places cannabis ancillary service providers with acquiring banks and processors that knowingly underwrite software, consulting, security, packaging, and staffing for licensed operators, so the account is built to last instead of flagged after the first review. We work with virtually any legal business, subject to underwriting; pricing, limits, and terms depend on the acquirer's review. Reserves may apply, and any reserve is disclosed in your agreement before you sign.
  • Pre-underwriting review of your website, checkout, and documents (client list, contracts, and proof you don't touch the plant)
  • Application packaged and submitted only to acquirers with appetite for your category
  • Plain-English walkthrough of pricing, reserve, and termination terms before you sign

ACH Payments

For cannabis ancillary services: Offer bank-account payments for permitted ancillary goods and business services, with authorization and invoice matching built into the workflow. Bank payments give cannabis ancillary service providers a lower-cost option for larger tickets and a backup if card processing is reviewed. ACH has its own risk rules, including return-rate limits under Nacha, so it is underwritten separately.
  • ACH underwriting alongside your card account
  • Authorization language and receipt templates
  • Integration into invoices, checkout, or your CRM

For cannabis ancillary services: Schedule and manage payments for ancillary service contracts and recurring supply orders, including renewals and customer account balances.

Text to Pay

For cannabis ancillary services: Send a payment request for permitted ancillary goods and business services by text so customers can pay against a specific order or invoice.

Level 2/3 Processing

For cannabis ancillary services: Include purchase-order references and itemized invoice data for business-card purchases of permitted ancillary goods and business services.

  • Data mapping from your ERP or invoicing
  • Interchange review after launch
  • Ongoing support

Crypto Payments & Conversion

For cannabis ancillary services: Plan a digital-asset payment option for permitted ancillary goods and business services, with conversion and reconciliation mapped to the sale. Crypto gives cannabis ancillary service providers another way to get paid when card options are limited. Customers pay in supported digital assets and you can receive U.S. dollars. Crypto conversion is provided through service partners coordinated by Roots. Roots Payments is not a bank, money transmitter, or crypto exchange.
