Fantasy sports have gained popularity from quite some time now and it seems like they are gaining its momentum in the UK now. EskayPay’s fantasy sports merchant accounts, allow the merchants dealing in this industry a secure and reliable payment gateway.
Why Is Fantasy Sports Considered A High-Risk Industry?
In the eyes of many acquiring banks, fantasy sports fall under a high-risk industry. It is so because many acquiring banks believe that this industry is somewhat similar to the gambling industry since the money is being wagered. Businesses that operate in the gambling space are more likely to be faced with excessive chargebacks, fraud, and instances of money laundering, all of which can increase liability for a payment processor. This increase in potential risk means that most payment processors will automatically refuse to work with fantasy sports companies.
