YNOT – Adult industry veteran Ariel X and independent banking liaison Payment Systems (dba Merchant Services) have partnered to launch a new service that offers to assist high-risk internet merchants in acquiring credit card merchant accounts.

XXX Merchant Solution combines Ariel X’s seven years of industry experience as the owner of Cuddly Shark Inc. with Merchant Services’ more than 20 years as an independent agent representing public and private banks in their dealings with websites, retail stores, mail-order and telephone-order operations and mobile networks. Together the two vow to help adult industry merchants uncover lower-cost processing alternatives to bolster their bottom lines.

“I think it’s crazy that the current merchant services providers are charging such ridiculous rates,” Ariel X said. “I know what their cost is, and I know they are screwing the porn industry in all the wrong ways.

“We specialize in high-risk and adult accounts that otherwise would not be accepted to process or would be given high rates,” she continued. “Our function is to set up merchants with the ability to accept Visa and MasterCard and other bankcards through electronic processing via the internet, software or electronic terminal. Because we are licensed through several processing banks, we have the ability to set up merchants in a wide array of businesses, not just limited to adult. However, due to the explosion of XXX internet commerce, we have made that our focus and specialty.

“We are dedicated to providing the adult entertainment industry the best rates around,” Ariel X added. “We realize that due to the times in our economy, rates and savings are the primary concern for all merchants. Because we receive direct cost from Visa and MasterCard, we can provide you the lowest rates available.”

She also said the company takes pride in its customer service and strives to answer questions in a timely manner.
