How is it you are in a high risk area to begin with.
It may be simply a matter of your chosen business field or because the bank or financial institution’s auditor looked at your account and you fell out because of some benchmark they arbitrarily set.
The seller gets into the high risk area either because of the product (guns), daily volume (check cashing), or the seller’s own credit (pawn shops). If the underwriters decide, based on your volume, dollar transaction amounts, or other factors, that you are a bad risk you and your business could end up on the Terminated Merchant File (TMF).
