As a business owner, your personal credit can affect your operation in many ways.

Merchants with bad credit can really struggle in getting a merchant account. They struggle because of the risk that the banks are taking on. When the bank sees a merchant with a poor credit score, high debt, and late payments on their history can make banks decide that they are not worth the risk even though they have business funding.
Whenever a merchant applies for a merchant account, they will undergo an underwriting process that ultimately determines their approval despite all else. In order to give yourself the best chance to get approved we recommend that any merchant with poor credit brings the following for consideration.
