Transparent Pricing Explained

What Are High Risk Payment Processing Fees — And Why Ours Are Different

High risk payment processing fees are the per-transaction costs applied to businesses in industries that card networks and banks flag as elevated-risk — adult content, nutraceuticals, e-cigarettes, gaming, travel, crypto services, and more. Traditional processors offset this risk with complex, unpredictable fee structures.

PayBito takes the opposite approach: a single flat 1% fee, regardless of your industry, payment method, or monthly volume. No percentage tiers, no interchange differentials, no "risk surcharge" line items.

Transaction Fee 1% of each payment — all methods, all currencies
Setup Fee None — zero cost to go live
Monthly Minimum None — pay only when you transact
Rolling Reserve Not imposed by PayBito (processor-level terms apply to card rails)
Chargeback Fee Managed through your Stripe/PayPal accounts per their standard terms
Crypto Network Fee Passed through at cost — not marked up by PayBito
Withdrawal Fee Tier-based — upgrade from Tier 1 to Tier 2 by completing KYC/KYB

The PayBito Cost Advantage

One Rate Covers Everything

Whether a customer pays via Stripe card, PayPal REST API, or crypto through a Brand Wallet, External Wallet (MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Coinbase Wallet, Phantom, Brave, TronLink), or Guest Checkout — the fee is always 1%.

Recurring Billing at the Same Rate

Subscription payments processed through PayBito are charged at the same 1% flat fee — no premium for automated recurring billing cycles.

You Choose Who Absorbs the Fee

PayBito's Fee Handling setting lets you pass the 1% to the customer at checkout or absorb it yourself — a decision you can change at any time without contacting support.

Volume Limit Scales With KYC Tier

Start at Tier 1 ($1,000/day, 90 payments/month). Complete KYC/KYB to unlock Tier 2 with higher daily and monthly processing volumes — no renegotiation required.

Why Merchants Choose PayBito

Built for High-Risk. Priced for Growth.

Six reasons high-risk merchants choose PayBito over traditional acquiring solutions.

Predictable 1% — Always

No percentage tiers, no volume thresholds, no industry surcharges. The flat 1% stays constant whether you process $500 or $500,000 in a month.

Crypto Reduces Card Dependency

Many high-risk businesses lose card processing without warning. Accepting BTC, ETH, USDT, and 7+ more assets via PayBito ensures you always have a payment rail running.

Full Fee Control at Checkout

Decide whether customers pay the 1% fee on top of their order total, or you absorb it from your settlement. Change this setting anytime from your configuration panel.

KYC Tier Unlocks Higher Volume

Tier 1 supports $1,000/day and 90 payments per month. Complete KYC/KYB to upgrade to Tier 2 for expanded daily limits — managed from your Settlement section.

Developer-Ready API & Webhooks

Generate API keys, configure webhooks, and whitelist domains from the Developers section. Full programmatic access for custom integrations — included at no extra cost.

Crypto & Bank Settlement

Settle to crypto wallets (BTC, ETH, BCH, LTC, XRP, USDT, DOGE, USDC, HCX) or add a bank account for fiat withdrawals — supporting IFSC, IBAN, and global routing codes.
