We’re excited to announce that the Bankful app is officially live in the BigCommerce App Marketplace! Whether you’re selling in a regulated industry or scaling a direct-to-consumer brand, Bankful makes it easier than ever to securely accept payments, prevent chargebacks, and grow your business—without the roadblocks of traditional payment processors.
A big win for high-risk and specialty merchants
If you’ve struggled to find a payment provider who understands your industry—you’re not alone. Many BigCommerce merchants in categories like CBD, firearms, adult, and nutraceuticals face unfair account holds, high decline rates, or outright rejections. That’s where Bankful comes in.
With over 15 years of experience in high-risk payment processing, we’ve built a platform specifically designed to meet the needs of underbanked businesses. Now, with our BigCommerce integration, you get all the tools you need to accept payments confidently and compliantly—right where you sell.
What You Can Do with Bankful on BigCommerce
Here’s what you unlock by adding Bankful to your BigCommerce store:
✅ Accept Payments with Confidence
Accept a wide range of payment methods including major credit cards, eCheck, cryptocurrency, Sezzle buy now pay later, and LocalPay. Bankful ensures your customers have options, and your business can accept payments globally—without restriction.
✅ Protect Revenue with Fraud Tools
Our layered security system includes 3D Secure (3DS), Fraud Shield, and AI-powered fraud detection. Together, these tools help you catch suspicious behavior in real-time while still approving good transactions—striking the perfect balance between protection and performance.
✅ Prevent Chargebacks Before They Happen
With Chargeback Alerts and Rapid Dispute Resolution (RDR), you’ll receive early warnings and have the chance to resolve disputes before they escalate into chargebacks. This reduces lost revenue, saves admin time, and keeps your merchant account healthy.
✅ Flexible Checkout Options
Deliver the checkout experience your customers expect with our Hosted Payment Page (HPP), a fully customizable payment page that reflects your brand. You can also enable Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay for instant, frictionless mobile payments.
✅ Invoice and Collect Payments Anywhere
Send professional, secure invoices through email or SMS with one click. Use eCheck Mobile for transactions on the go, or our Virtual Terminal (VT) for manual entry, recurring payments, or phone orders—perfect for remote and hybrid businesses.
✅ Automate Your Back Office
Connect your BigCommerce store to QuickBooks for seamless accounting and reconciliation. Apply Customer Assistance Fees (CAF) where applicable and generate payment reports to streamline your financial workflows.
✅ Gain Marketing Insights with AI
Leverage AI-powered analytics to understand customer behavior, optimize conversion rates, and increase lifetime value. Bankful’s built-in marketing intelligence transforms raw data into actionable insights.
