High-Risk Merchant Accounts: Why You're Paying 10% Processing Fees

Lower Fees, No Chargebacks: Why Stablecoins Beat Card Payments
Card payments work, but the fee structure was never built for small businesses. Every swipe passes through banks, networks, and processors, each taking a cut before the money reaches you. Stablecoins work differently: digital dollars that move directly from customer to merchant, settling in seconds instead of days. This post explains what stablecoins are, how they compare to cards, and why more merchants are paying attention. It's the second in a series on rethinking payments.
The Hidden Cost of Credit Card Payments for Small Businesses
Swipe fees are quietly eating into small business margins. Every time a customer taps a card, a portion of the sale is routed through banks, card networks, and processors before it reaches your business. This post breaks down how card payments actually work, why processing fees typically land between 2.5% and 3.5%, and why those costs scale with revenue rather than expenses. It's the first post in a multi-part series on rethinking payments for small businesses, from the hidden mechanics of card fees to how stablecoins introduce a fundamentally different payment rail and what that shift means for merchants, resellers, and global commerce.
