High-Risk

What makes some businesses high-risk and others low-risk? Many executives are painfully aware of the drawbacks of being labeled high-risk, but are unsure of how they got there.

The 10 most common reasons that businesses might be considered high-risk are when:

  • The owner has poor personal credit or other high-risk factors such as a high amount of unpaid debts, recent bankruptcy, foreclosures, short sales, tax liens.
  • There is a lack of financial data that supports large volume or high-tickets. For example, a business seeking to process $100k per month with a high ticket of $50k, may struggle when they only keep a few hundred dollars in their bank account.
  • The business’ industry historically has high ratios of buyers remorse or chargebacks.
  • The ratio of chargebacks for the business is on the higher side.
  • There isn’t a clear return policy for the business.
  • Significant deposits are made for construction projects that might take a long time.
  • Services are prepaid for orders that might take weeks or months to fulfill.
  • Third-party companies are delivering products or subcontractors are completing work on behalf of the party that is collecting the payment.
  • Large portions of the consumer base of the business are overseas.
  • The card is taken for large tickets in a card-not-present environment.
