Reduce costs and increase growth with Merchant of Record.

A Merchant of Record (MOR) model removes the border between you and your customers, and act as an intermediary between a business and its customers, taking responsibility for the payments process and assuming liability on behalf of that business. When you use an MOR, you can unlock local acquiring in your global markets and gain the ability to process locally. This eliminates the need to establish expensive local entities, which also lowers fees, reduces false transaction declines, and offloads the risks of fraud and global tax compliance.
