Cannabidiol, commonly abbreviated to CBD, is the second-most active cannabinoid in cannabis plants after tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Unlike THC, it is nonpsychoactive meaning it does not cause a high or impair daily functioning. There are those who believe CBD can be used to manage certain health conditions, reduce anxiety, and ease pain. ### Why are CBD merchants considered high-risk? While the products themselves are not risky, there are several factors which have led CBD payment processors and their sponsor banks to offer only high-risk merchant accounts to businesses in the industry. For starters, even though the 2018 Farm Bill legalized the sale of products derived from hemp, there are still regulations that remain on a state-by-state basis that can be too complex to navigate for less experienced CBD payment processors. There’s also the higher risk of fraud and chargebacks associated with CBD credit card processing. ### Why should I choose Inovio for my CBD merchant account? At inovio, we know CBD merchant processing. We’ve been helping merchants in so-called “high-risk industries” like CBD accept payments and grow their businesses for years. We leverage the latest payment technologies to offer CBD credit card processing that is easy, reliable, and affordable. ```json { "@context" : "http://schema.org", "@type" : "BreadcrumbList", "itemListElement" : [ { "@type" : "ListItem", "item" : { "@id" : "https://www.inoviopay.com", "name" : "Home" }, "position" : 1 } ] } ```
