Frequently asked questions

Is adult content high-risk for payments?

It is among the highest-risk verticals — expect strict onboarding, elevated reserves and close compliance scrutiny.

What compliance do adult PSPs require?

Robust age and consent verification, content-policy adherence and clear billing descriptors.

Why are adult reserves higher?

Higher chargeback and compliance risk means larger, longer-held reserves; check each provider's real reserve behaviour.
