Some businesses get told no. Others get told yes on the wrong terms. We are the independent middle: we find the right fit and connect you with the partner who delivers it.

// WHAT WE DO

Three ways we help
you get paid.

01 · MERCHANT PROCESSING

Domestic, international, and high-risk merchant accounts — we find the right fit for your business.

Getting approved for payment processing isn't always straightforward — especially if your business operates in a high-risk industry, processes large volumes, or has been declined or shut down by a mainstream processor like Stripe, PayPal, or Square. We work with a network of acquiring partners who specialize in exactly these situations. Tell us about your business and we'll connect you with the right processor for your model, volume, and geography.

  • High-risk and hard-to-place merchants
  • E-commerce, MOTO, and subscription billing
  • International and multi-currency processing
  • High-volume accounts
  • Merchants whose accounts have been frozen, closed, or suspended
  • Industries including travel, supplements, SaaS, credit repair, gaming, and more

Merchant processing services are provided by our acquiring partners. FlexWave connects merchants with the right provider based on their business profile.

02 · CARD ISSUANCE

Need to issue cards to your users, employees, or payout recipients?

We connect businesses with card issuance programs suited to a range of use cases — corporate spend, prepaid, virtual cards, and payout disbursements. Whether you're a platform, marketplace, or employer, we'll identify the right issuance partner for your program.

  • Corporate and expense cards
  • Prepaid and virtual card programs
  • Payout and disbursement cards
  • Platform and marketplace use cases

Card issuance programs are provided by our issuing partners. FlexWave refers businesses to the appropriate program based on their needs.

03 · CHARGEBACK & FRAUD PREVENTION

Stop disputes before they become chargebacks.

Too many chargebacks put your merchant account at risk — and with Visa's VAMP threshold now at 1.5%, the margin for error is smaller than ever. We refer merchants to Fraud Deflect, whose FD.ID technology intercepts disputes in real time, sharing data with the issuing bank before a chargeback is ever filed. The result: you keep the sale, protect your MID, and stay within card network thresholds.

  • Reduce chargeback rates automatically
  • Save the sale instead of issuing a refund
  • Stay compliant with VAMP and card network risk thresholds

Fraud prevention services are provided by Fraud Deflect. FlexWave refers merchants to this solution as an authorized partner.

// OUR STORY

FlexWave exists because good businesses get refused, or mis-sold, every day. As an independent consultancy we are not tied to any single processor or bank. We understand your model and connect you with the acquiring, issuance, or chargeback partner that actually fits. Impartial, and on your side.
