High-risk merchant account

Coaching & online course merchant accounts

You sell a $5,000 coaching program and your processor sees a $5,000 "future-delivery" liability. High tickets, payment plans and the occasional refund-heavy launch are exactly what make an aggregator freeze a coach’s income mid-launch.

High tickets and future-delivery services spook generalist processors.
Refund-heavy launches raise chargeback risk.
Payment plans and installments need reliable recurring billing.

The problem

Why Coaching & courses keeps getting shut off

The fix isn’t lowering your prices. It’s a merchant account underwritten for high-ticket coaching — with payment plans, clear descriptors and dispute tools — so your best month doesn’t trigger a shutdown.

Greenlit places you with a bank that approves Coaching & courses on purpose — and keeps you there.

Answers

Coaching & courses payment questions

Can I accept high-ticket payments and plans?+

Yes — large tickets and multi-payment plans are supported with recurring billing and clear descriptors.

Why did my processor freeze my coaching income?+

Aggregators freeze future-delivery, high-ticket volume automatically. A real merchant account underwritten for coaching avoids that.
