How each solution supports file hosting & cloud storage

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

High-Risk Merchant Account

For file hosting & cloud storage: Present your model for technical support charges and software purchases to specialist processing partners, with product and fulfillment documentation prepared. Roots Payments places file hosting and cloud storage services with acquiring banks and processors that knowingly underwrite storage subscriptions and premium downloads, 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 (DMCA process, abuse policy, and content scanning)
  • Application packaged and submitted only to acquirers with appetite for your category
  • Plain-English walkthrough of pricing, reserve, and termination terms before you sign

Crypto Payments & Conversion

For file hosting & cloud storage: Plan a digital-asset payment option for technical support charges and software purchases, with conversion and reconciliation mapped to the sale.
