While Omise aims to accept all merchants, there’re certain goods, services, business activities, business relationships and business practices that Omise and/or our financial partners deem as high risk and are unable to accept.

Some of the industries that is not able to onboard are marketplaces, matching service, donations, foreign currency exchange and virtual currencies among others.

The full list of restricted businesses are listed out in our Merchant acceptance criteria. Note the types of businesses listed below are representative, but not exhaustive.

If you are uncertain as to whether your business is prohibited, please send the following information to our Customer Support Team at support@omise.co for pre-screening.
