Luxury Commerce.
Your customer wants to buy a $50,000 watch. Their bank wants to have a conversation about it first.
Challenge
Luxury retail has a payment problem that most industries never encounter: the higher the price tag, the harder it is to actually collect the money. Every safeguard the card networks built to protect consumers actively works against high-value merchants.
01Card limits and fraud flags. A $50K handbag triggers an automatic hold. A $200K jet charter gets declined outright. Issuers were never designed for six-figure retail.
02Wire transfers move at the speed of mortgage closings. 3 to 5 business days, intermediary bank fees, manual reconciliation on both sides. Buying a limited-edition piece shouldn't feel like paperwork.
03International buyers get hit worst. Foreign cards face higher decline rates across the board. The wealthiest customer base is the most global, and the most blocked.
04Chargeback exposure scales with ticket size. A $500 dispute is a line item. A $30K chargeback is a crisis. Every card transaction at this price point carries disproportionate risk.
05Privacy matters. Luxury buyers expect discretion. Card statements, bank records, and third-party payment pages don't deliver that.
The merchant needed a payment method with no ceiling, no middlemen, and no take-backs.
