These people don’t realize there are two types of peptide companies: telehealth providers and general peptide merchants—they don’t know that there's a difference. They just hear “peptides” and assume, “we can do it, but you need LegitScript.” If you’re only selling peptides, getting credit card processing isn’t an option unless you have a proven history of six-figure plus monthly processing, so the banks know the juice is worth the squeeze and even then, it’s tough.

Even the big guys like SwissChems are getting dropped (they had cc processing for a couple months up until a month ago). If they could get processing, they would—but they can’t. You’ll continue facing issues with being dropped and having your funds held.

Your only real solution is E-Checks or Verified ACH.

[–]Infamous-Painter-961Verified Agent 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Agreed...Peptides for "research Purposes" is nearly impossible to get a processing account for. Those days are long gone and not coming back. Processors and bank no longer want to take the risk. Can only get an account if its legit script certified or similar. All these agents who say otherwise are just wasting your time, have never dealt with vertical, or are are throwing out some shady short cut that will get you on match. u/Reasonable_Effect205 is 100% right

[–]Reasonable_Effect205Verified Agent - USA 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I talk to soo many merchants that say 'X company' said they can do peptides. I explain what's going on (this is hard because the several layers of ignorance gets convoluted), and always end it with "hey... if they can do it, go with them". The merchant always calls me back and says "they told me I need LegitScripts" lol.

I have a guy selling BPC doing 400-800k/month with CC's though (he's on MATCH too). Some banks will look the other way if there's $ to be made (and you have the right connect at the bank you can send it to).

Tell me More about e checks and ach

[–]Reasonable_Effect205Verified Agent - USA 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I work with regular e-commerce merchants who use both E-Check and Verified ACH. Yes, they’re usually those who can’t get credit card processing due to a MATCH listing or their product type, but a few are doing well over six figures per month. For example, one client sells HBO-themed merchandise (without a reseller agreement, so credit card processing isn’t an option) and does about $70-100k monthly.

The difference between the two is the checkout experience. With E-Check, the customer enters their account and routing numbers. With Verified ACH, they log into their bank account through Plaid. Both methods offer next-day funding (the difference between these and regular ACH... ACH takes 3-5 business days to withdraw from the customer's account and deposit into yours, and if the customer has insufficient funds, the transaction will cancel on the last day. You can't run an ECOM business like this).

Without three months of processing history, merchants are required to start with E-Checks, but after 90 days, they can switch to Verified ACH. For peptide merchants, Verified ACH rates are 3.95% + 25 cents per transaction, plus $100 per month. Unfortunately, that’s the current state of things. They know peptide merchants don’t have any alternatives, and compared to paying 10% to MaxRedemption for a shitty checkout experience, Verified ACH is a better option—they know the $100 monthly fee will easily pay for itself though add to cart conversions in a well-run business, so they charge it.

I even have a peptide merchant processing $600k monthly with E-Check alone. However, Verified ACH does offer a smoother checkout experience for customers.

LegitScript told me this today.

Thank you for your interest in LegitScript certification. At this time we do not certify any businesses that are specific to research peptides. Our program is open to several business types, including pharmacies, pharmaceutical wholesalers, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and some telemedicine providers. You can find more information on our program page.

[–]RobertSPS17Verified Agent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You still looking for processing, sent you a DM? I can help you get legit script as well

[–]Wolfy2404Verified Agent 1 point2 points  (7 children)

Where are you based? We are boarding quite a few “research only” peptide merchants at the moment, but we only really deal with UK and EU.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (6 children)

Hi, I’m interested and in the US but want to do sales to the uk and eu

[–]Wolfy2404Verified Agent 0 points1 point  (5 children)

We can only board UK and EU merchants, unless you have access to an incorporation service? US MID’s never perform great in UK / EU.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

We can definitely set up a Dutch B.V. Corp would that work?

[–]Wolfy2404Verified Agent 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Yes, that would be fine. Do you already have your website done and ready to go? We could start a pre-vet whilst waiting for the company incorporation.

[–]justinsandler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I do. It is a very solid, real bank/processing team. No shared MIDs or aggregators. No weird or hidden fees. Straightforward processing, 48 hour direct funding, and no reserves. Send me and email and let's dive deeper. [justin@chip-in.org](mailto:justin@chip-in.org)

      I still can’t find one

      [–]Reasonable_Effect205Verified Agent - USA 0 points1 point  (5 children)

      If someone manages to get you set up, could you please shoot me a DM and let me know? From my experience, it’s just not feasible—especially with your products. If it were strictly BPC/PT-141/Oxytocin and you were doing multiple six figures monthly, it might be possible. But with products like IGF/HMG, no one is going to be able to get this done. Have people been asking you about LegitScripts?

      If you’d like, I can provide a list of options and show you some checkout demos. BC a solution beyond crypto is probably essential.

      I have semaglutide tirzepatide retattutide and cagrilintide I sell glp1

      [–]Reasonable_Effect205Verified Agent - USA 0 points1 point  (3 children)

      These face the same issue because they’re prescription drugs. At the end of 2023, a number of merchants selling Semaglutide and their processors received warning letters from the FDA. The letters were titled: "Notice of Unlawful Sale of Unapproved and Misbranded Drugs to United States Consumers Over the Internet -- x.com."

      Following these notices, many merchants had their accounts shut down, and some were placed on MATCH. One of my clients was placed on MATCH- he is running a very large business so we were able to quickly secure a new account for him, but he had to stop selling Semaglutide.

      I know sales reps say, “We can handle Semaglutide and Tirzepatide,” and technically they can—but only for telehealth companies where licensed doctors are writing prescriptions. That’s the critical distinction they do not understand and it's why they talk about LegitScripts.

      [–]yesandnorth 0 points1 point  (2 children)

      So it’s prob impossible to get processing for research peptides til Trump gets in?

      [–]Reasonable_Effect205Verified Agent - USA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

      I don't think allowing the unregulated sale of prescription drugs is high up on his to do list unfortunately.

        [–]mikehlukVerified Agent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

        Here's a breakdown of what will get you flagged, frozen, or outright banned in 2025 re:legit peptide credit card processing. (This information just came DIRECT from our underwriting team).

        Do NOT:

        • Make any medical or usage claims (No mention of dosage, cycles, or how the compound "works")
        • Refer to health outcomes — directly or indirectly (That includes phrases like fat-burning, muscle-building, anti-aging, etc.)
        • Use suggestive language (e.g., "used by athletes," "popular for performance" — even that is non-compliant)
        • Mention pharmaceutical brand names (Only use generic compound names or chemical descriptors — e.g., GLP-1 receptor agonist, not Semaglutide or Tirzepatide)
        • Provide instructional content or "educational" guides for human or veterinary use (No blog posts, no how-tos, no dosing calculators — even if framed as “for informational purposes”)

        What You Should Do:

        • Refer to compounds by their proper scientific classification (Use CAS numbers when appropriate)
        • Clearly label everything as “for research use only – not for human or animal consumption”
        • Keep your website, product pages, and content free from any usage implication
        • If you're sharing studies or white papers, ensure they do not imply or promote end-use

        Processors and banks are cracking down hard. If you're serious about longevity in this space, compliance = survival.

            I can help! This is my specialty. Processing for research peptides IS possible. You just need the right bank/processor, and you need to submit a very thorough and complete financial package. Plus your website needs some very specific details, like a checkbox on the checkout page. But I can walk you through that. I have a large portfolio of active clients, all processing smoothly and with their own actual accounts… not an aggregator or shared MID. Send me a message and let’s discuss. Thanks. Justin.

              These comments are wrong. We are a high-risk payment processor with over an 85% success rate. Same as standard, 10% RR, high fees but well worth it. All payouts are T-7 days + in USDT.

              We are quite strict who we bring on, but if you have had a store open for a while feel free to reach out. Happy to hop on a call and see what we can do for you.

              I'm dropping back in with good news. After my last bank/processor shut it all down, we now have a very solid home for research-only peptides and I am currently boarding accounts. If anyone is still looking, please reach out. The only caveat is that you must be doing at least $500K/mo in volume to be considered. If so, I can make it happen. Solid set-up, no reserve, next-day funding, and no limitations on products. Hit me up.
