Stable merchant accounts for subscription and continuity businesses, with recurring billing, failed-payment recovery, and chargeback prevention built in. Apply with confidence.
Subscription merchants face recurring billing declines, high churn, and processors that flag the continuity model as high risk the moment chargebacks rise. As a high risk merchant account provider, Daystar sets up subscription payment processing with the tools that keep recurring revenue stable: account updater, intelligent retries, dunning, clear billing descriptors, and chargeback alerts.
We support subscription boxes, membership sites, streaming services, SaaS platforms, auto-replenishment programs, and trial-to-paid offers. Our 20 acquiring banks across 4 continents let us match your model to the right bank, with multiple MIDs to spread volume. We also offer re-banking for merchants terminated for high chargebacks or listed on TMF/MATCH.
There are no setup fees and no long-term contracts. Most applications get a decision within 24 hours, most approved merchants are live within 3 business days, and qualified applicants see a 95% approval rate. Real-time reporting shows subscription trends, transaction details, and financial analytics. Call our Miami team at +1 (786) 453-7357 to talk through your subscription business, or apply online and a specialist will review your details.
Accept all major cards for monthly, annual, and usage-based plans. Account updater services refresh stored cards when they expire or are reissued, so renewals keep processing instead of failing silently. Fraud screening at signup helps keep stolen cards out of your subscriber base before they become chargebacks.


Integrate a payment gateway with your website, app, or SaaS platform to store cards securely and bill automatically. Tokenized payments, plan management tools, and real-time reporting on subscription trends and transaction details give you a clear view of renewals, declines, and revenue. Webhooks and reporting help you act on declines quickly.
Let subscribers sign up, update cards, and pay from their phones with mobile-friendly checkout and payment links. Mobile acceptance also helps at events and pop-ups where you sell memberships or subscription boxes in person. Self-service card updates reduce involuntary churn when a subscriber’s card is lost or replaced.

Offer ACH and eCheck as an alternative to cards for recurring payments. Bank payments do not expire like cards, which reduces involuntary churn, and they give you another option when card chargeback ratios need to come down. ACH works well for higher-priced annual plans and business subscribers who prefer paying by bank transfer.

Automate recurring charges with intelligent retry logic for soft declines, dunning messages that reach customers before a subscription lapses, and compliant free-trial and trial-to-paid billing. Clear renewal disclosures and easy cancellation help keep disputes within card-brand thresholds. Real-time reporting shows recovery rates so you can see what your retries save.

Grow a global subscriber base with multi-currency billing that charges customers in their local currency. Daystar offers domestic and offshore processing options through acquiring banks on 4 continents for continuity merchants selling internationally. Local-currency pricing improves conversion and reduces declines from cross-border card transactions and foreign transaction fees.
