Timeshare Merchant Account

A timeshare merchant account allows for travel and hospitality businesses to take payments using debit or credit cards. Usually this is done via the internet on an e-commerce website or over the telephone – both “card not present” transactions. The timeshare industry is only one of the many types of travel merchant accounts but it is classified with its own SIC code. This makes it very unique within the high risk merchant processing world.

Because payment is made before the service or timeshare stay takes place, the timeshare and travel industries are placed in the high risk merchant processing category. A timeshare merchant account may also be considered “high risk” if it completes it’s transactions internationally.

For example, if you are a timeshare owner in Florida and you have clients paying from outside the United States, this is considered an international transaction. Thus, your business would fall under a high risk international merchant account. If you do business strictly within the United States, your business would just be considered a domestic high risk account.
