RUO Processing U.S. Bank Merchant Info Questionnaire

Please complete all applicable fields. This information is required to submit your credit card merchant application to underwriting.

This is the credit card application. It covers Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express processing through our U.S. bank partner. If you want the 2% same-day ACH program instead (or in addition), that's a separate, faster application, go to intake.gulfmanagementsystems.com/form/profile/shark or read the walkthrough at holisticpayments.io/ach-apply.

Graduated pricing: as your monthly volume grows, you move down the schedule to a lower rate, so scaling up means paying less per transaction over time.

Reserve Options

Major point
After 90 days of good performance, the reserve is removed and set to 0%. You will receive a letter from the bank confirming this as fact when you sign your merchant agreement.

A reserve is a percentage of each day's settlement that the processor holds back as security against chargebacks, refunds, and account volatility. It's standard for high-risk verticals and is released back to you once your account proves stable. Pick the option you'd prefer below.

Negotiable: Option B's 90-day window can be reduced to 60 days for merchants with sufficient processing history.

These are estimates. The real rate is subject to review based on the holistic account outlook.
