Steady ground for high-risk merchants.
Personalized high-risk payment processing for businesses everyone else keeps saying no to.
What you get
Who we serve
What we process
If you sell CBD, peptides, supplements, or anything “high-risk” — you already know the drill.
You apply with Stripe. Approved Monday, shut down Friday. You try Square. Same story. PayPal freezes sixty days of revenue while you scramble to explain your business. Your last broker stopped answering emails the day after the deposit cleared. And every day this drags on, you’re losing customers who actually came to buy.
It shouldn’t be this hard.
We’re not the biggest. We’re the most attentive.
Upright Payments is a consultancy that helps high-risk merchants get approved for payment processing and merchant accounts. We work with the small list of acquirers who actually serve verticals like CBD, peptides, and nutraceuticals — and we know what each one is willing to board this quarter.
We’re new enough to pick up the phone every time. We’re connected enough to know who to call.
How it works.
- 01
Tell us about your business.
A short application, about five minutes. We need the basics: what you sell, expected monthly volume, how you market, and any prior processing history.
- 02
We package and shop the application.
We pre-vet your file against the current rules of each acquirer we work with. Then we submit to the one most likely to approve — and the next-best as a backup.
- 03
You get approved and onboarded.
Usually within three to ten business days. After approval, you get gateway credentials, a sponsor bank relationship, and a real person on our team who knows your file.
What you don’t have to do.
- Explain why your business isn’t a scam.
- Argue with an account manager you’ll never reach again.
- Start over every ninety days.
We’ve heard the story. We built this for you.

Most applications take 3 to 10 business days. There’s no fee to apply.
