Merchant accounts for NFT platforms and collectibles sellers, with high ticket limits, digital-goods fraud tools and banks experienced in emerging markets. Apply with confidence.
NFT platforms and collectibles marketplaces are often declined by Stripe, Square and PayPal. Banks see high average tickets, proximity to cryptocurrency, price volatility and card-not-present sales of digital goods, all of which raise fraud and chargeback exposure. Sellers of digital art, trading cards, sports memorabilia and physical collectibles can find their accounts frozen right after a big drop or a record sale.
Daystar works with 20 acquiring banks across 4 continents, including banks experienced in emerging digital markets. As a high risk merchant account provider, we approve 95% of qualified applicants, most decisions arrive within 24 hours, and most approved merchants are live within 3 business days, with no setup fees and no long-term contracts. Merchants with a prior termination or TMF/MATCH listing can apply for review.
We size accounts for large sales, add fraud tools tuned to digital-goods order patterns, and offer eCheck and ACH for lower-cost settlement on high-value purchases, so your marketplace, auction or storefront keeps processing through launches and busy release windows. Multiple MIDs can also separate NFT sales from physical collectibles for cleaner underwriting.
Accept cards on trading cards, graded slabs, memorabilia, digital art and NFT purchases, with transaction limits sized so a high-value sale is not declined at checkout. Card-present sales at card shows and shops carry lower dispute risk, and clear descriptors that name your marketplace help buyers recognize charges after a drop or auction closes.


Our gateway integrates with marketplace platforms, e-commerce stores and custom checkout systems, supporting one-time purchases, auctions and subscription access to digital content. AVS, CVV, 3-D Secure and velocity filters screen digital-goods orders, which fraudsters target because delivery is instant, and chargeback-alert tools let you resolve disputes before they post.
Take payments at card shows, conventions, memorabilia signings and pop-up events with a phone or tablet. Mobile acceptance lets you close high-value sales on the spot and records them in the same reporting as your online store. Receipts go out by text or email so buyers leave with proof of purchase and item details.

Serious collectors buying high-value pieces, graded cards or full collections can pay by bank transfer. eCheck and ACH processing lowers your cost on large sales compared with cards and gives buyers an option when a purchase exceeds their card limit. ACH also provides a second rail if card processing is paused.

Offer subscription access to digital content, collector clubs, box breaks and monthly mystery-box programs with automated recurring billing. Card-updater and retry tools keep memberships active when cards are reissued, and clear terms with easy cancellation help keep subscription disputes low for your digital collectibles business.

Collectors buy from every continent. Multi-currency processing lets international buyers pay in their own currency, and domestic and offshore processing options support cross-border sales of both digital and physical collectibles. Multiple MIDs can separate NFT sales from physical collectibles so each is underwritten on its own risk profile.
