A Charter Flight merchant account from a bank that knows your category

Roots Payments places private aviation and charter brokers with acquiring banks and processors that knowingly underwrite charter flights and jet cards, 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.
