Adult toys and adult entertainment are part of a classification called “high risk.” It may be surprising that several other industries are included in the high risk space. However, more business owners know that the adult market has additional regulations. Therefore, acquiring banks and payment processors have stricter policies when accepting adult merchant accounts.
