For higher-risk industries
High-risk payments, with straight answers first.
Businesses in higher-risk industries are often approved quickly by a processor, then frozen months later. Allidian works the other way round: a person reviews your business before anything goes live, and you're only placed with a payment provider whose rules accept your industry. Allidian is payment software. Payments are processed by a licensed provider under your own account with them, and the provider decides whether to approve your business.
One application. No sales call. Build in a free sandbox while your provider reviews it.
What gets in the way
Processors approve you, then freeze your account and hold your funds when they take a closer look
Generic sign-up forms don't explain what higher-risk businesses need to show
Chargebacks and refunds need careful handling to keep your account in good standing
You don't want to depend on a single processor forever

How we help
Reviewed by a person
Industries such as supplements, CBD, telemedicine, travel, events, dating and vaping go to manual review before any provider placement, so problems surface before you launch, not after.
Learn morePlaced only where you fit
Each provider's own prohibited and restricted lists are checked against your business. We don't submit you to a provider whose rules exclude you.
Learn moreDisputes and refunds in view
Every dispute and its status appears in your dashboard as it opens, and full or partial refunds take one click or one API call.

Frequently asked questions
Which industries count as higher risk?
Among others: nutraceuticals and supplements, CBD, telemedicine, travel and accommodation, events and ticketing, dating, tobacco and vaping, and cryptocurrency. They're reviewed case by case. Our acceptable use policy lists every category.
Will I be approved?
Nobody can promise that honestly. Approval is the payment provider's decision. Our network of integrated providers is still small, so some higher-risk businesses won't find a match yet; if that's you, we say so after review instead of letting you go live and get shut down later.
Which businesses can't use the platform at all?
Gambling and games of chance, adult content and services, weapons and ammunition, drugs and paraphernalia, multi-level marketing, debt relief and credit repair, and money services. Our acceptable use policy has the full list.
Does high risk mean higher fees?
Not from Allidian: the plan price and the flat per-payment fee are the same for every industry. Your payment provider sets its own processing fees and terms, which can differ by industry.
How do I lower my chargeback risk?
Use clear product descriptions and a recognisable business name on checkout, publish refund and delivery policies, answer customer emails fast, and refund rather than fight a dispute you would lose. Respond to every dispute before its deadline.
