Same issue with all of the other negative reviews. We processed payments then they shut our account off and held onto the funds. Our customers are pissed and I have instructed all of them to file a complaint with the CPFB and FTC against this company. It is not right what they are doing to merchants.

We've been with this company for about…
I want to preface this with, before this specific scenario, we've not had any problems with these guys. The absolute and only reason why I am posting this is because for some reason now, they refuse to respond. I opened another ticket yesterday, and asked for follow up, AND I GOT A RESPONSE, the response was to follow (The ticket number) for updates on the scenario. So they're able to respond to my new ticket to tell me to watch the other ticket, but noone is able to respond to my original ticket for a week? Nothing, no response whatesoever. We've been with this company for about a month. They have this habit of holding your funds (Just like stripe and square) except LONGER and WITH NO CONTACT. This time around, it's now been 7 days, since they've been holding the entirety of our funds. NOT A SINGLE PERSON HAS CALLED, EMAILED, TEXT, NOTHING. And it's been 7 days since they began holding our funds. In what world is it acceptable for a company to hold your cash flow unexpectedly and despite DAILY EMAILS, and several calls, NOT A SINGLE PERSON HAS REACHED OUT. I had promised our client that we would complete here services on saturday, but I wasn't able to do that because Maverick deicded to hold her money and not say anything AT ALL, the only way I found out the money was being held, was when the deposit didn't arrive. By then, it's friday morning and less than 24 hours to my clients services and we don't have the money to pay the contractor because maverick decided to screw us and NOT EVEN TELL US. NOT EVEN CALL, NOTHING. I'll be searching for another payment processor. In no world should it be acceptablte for a company to hold the entirety of your cash flow AND NOT SAY A SINGLE THING TO YOU, FOR YOU TO FIND OUT WHEN YOU GO TO MAKE A PAYMENT AND YOU SEE THE MONEY WASN'T DEPOSITED, THEN WHEN YOU TRY TO CONTACT THEM THROUGH CALLS, TICKETS, EMAILS, NOT A SINGLE PERSON RESPONDS IN OVER A WEEK. Completely unproffesional. luis@drewslegal
***UPDATE*** YOUR RESPONSE IS UNTRUE. Completely untrue, You guys have risk people there over the weekend, i called twice and the reps said there was "reduced staff" but someone was available. ALSO, you lie and state that you reached out to me on the 27th and THAT COULDNT BE FATHER FROM THE TRUTH. YOU "REACHING OUT" WAS YOU GUYS REQUESTING INFORMATION ON A TICKET .... THAT YOU HID .... THAT I COULDN'T EVEN SEE ... I ONLY KNEW THAT A TICKET EXISTED BUT KNEW NOTHING OF THE CONTENTS OF THE TICKET, WHEN I LOGGED INTO MY ACCOUNT, THERE WAS NO TICKET AS REFERENCED IN THE NOTIFICATION EMAIL THAT A NEW TICKET HAD BEEN OPENED (A NEW TICKET BEING OPENED, IM SUPPOSED TO GUESS WHAT THAT MEANS?) SO NOONE REACHING OUT , IF YOU CALL SENDING A TICKET THAT YOU'VE HIDDEN AND THAT I'M NOT EVEN ABLE TO SEE, "REACHING OUT" THAT LEAVES FAR MORE TO BE DESIRED. IF YOU ACTUALLY DID SOME RESEARCH YOU WOULD SEE THAT I EVEN CALLED ON SATURDAY AGAIN ASKING WHY OUR DEPOSIT WASN'T MADE AND TELLING THE REP THAT I HAD AN EMAIL FOR A TICKET BUT DONT KNOW WHAT IT IS AND HAVE NEVER BEEN ABLE TO SEE THAT TICKET, AND SHE SAID , "ILL TELL YOU WHAT ITS FOR, PLEASE SEND (THE REQUESTED DOCUMENTS) ,,... AND SHE SAID "SINCE YOU CAN'T VIEW THE TICKET THEY'RE REQUESTING DOCUMENTS FROM YOU IN, GO AHEAD AND PUT THE DOCUMENTS IN THE TICKET YOU STARTED "rEALLY?" AND THEN WHEN YOU GET EVERYTHING IN THAT TICKET CALL ME BACK AND ILL ESCALATE THAT TICKET TO RISK. AND YOU'LL ALSO SEE IN THE TICKET THAT I SENT YOU GUYS THE DOCUMENTS THAT YOU REQUESTED , I SPECIFICALLY STATE, SINCE I CANNOT SEE THIS "TICKET YOU GUYS SENT" THE REP TOLD ME TO SEND SOME DOCUMENTS IN THIS TICKET.
I SPOKE WITH JOSE I THINK HIS NAME WAS YESTERDAY AND HE TOOK RESPONSIBLITY FOR THE ERROR, AND ADMITTED IT MUST HAVE JUST BEEN BAD TIMING AND ASSURED ME THAT THIS TYPE OF THING DOESN'T USUALLY HAPPEN. AND I UNDERSTAND THAT MISTAKES HAPPEN. BUT YOUR BLATANT LIE AND REFUSAL TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR ACTIONS, THEN LYING IN PUBLIC VIEW ABOUT YOUR MISTAKE MAKES ME SERIOUSLY QUESTION YOUR INTEGRITY. EVERYONE MESSES UP, EVERYONE, WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES AND WE ALL JUST NEED TO LEARN FROM THEM. BUT YOU STAND HERE, CONTRADICTING THE CONVERSATION I HAD WITH THE MANAGER YESTERDAY, AND BLATANTLY SHOVING OFF RESPONSIBLITY ONTO ME, WHEN IT WAS 100000% NOT MY DECISION THAT NOONE CONTACTED ME AND IT WAS ALSO 1000% YOUR GUYS' ERROR TO REQUEST DOCUMENTS IN A TICKET THAT YOU DONT EVEN ALLOW ME TO SEE.

Hello Luis Ballenger,
Thank you for reaching out to us regarding this matter, we value your input and take this matter very seriously.
After reviewing your account, a hold was placed on your account on the 27th , the same day we reached out to you requesting additional information for a recent transaction.
No response was received until November 30, which is a Saturday and outside of normal operating hours. On Monday December 2nd, we reviewed your response , removed the hold and released the held funds.
We hope this has resolved your inquiry. If you need further assistance, please reach out to us directly at [email protected] requesting a manager review.
Thank you.

This company has numerous funding…
This company has numerous funding delays. Day after day, multiple different times. They do not back their clients. And currently they have stolen money by not depositing funds for products I sold online and have shipped to the customer. STAY FAR AWAY!!!!!

As a telehealth provider
As a telehealth provider, we had a highly negative experience with Maverick Payments. They banned our account without any notice or chargebacks, claiming we were breaking Visa and Mastercard rules due to our online prescription services. This is patently false, as we are LegitScript certified, which means we are approved by Visa and Mastercard. Only LegitScript certification holders can have a merchant account for telehealth treatments involving no card present transactions. Maverick also mistakenly listed us as an online pharmacy when we are solely the doctor arm of our practice.
Despite having our attorney write a detailed response debunking their claims, Maverick has ignored our attempts to resolve the issue and is holding our funds, effectively stealing from us. Business owners should beware of Maverick Payments. They are not educated on the most current rules and standards for merchant processing and have terrible customer service. We strongly advise against doing business with them.
June 17th UPDATE!
In your response, you stated that you identified our business as a card-not-present pharmacy merchant that processes transactions for prescription products without proper medical consultation or prescriptions. However, this assessment is inaccurate and fails to consider the actual practices of our company.
First and foremost, we do not collect payments prior to purchase. Like other reputable businesses in our industry, we preauthorize payments to ensure the validity of the transaction. If you had taken the time to contact us and discuss your concerns, we would have gladly provided you with this information and worked towards resolving any issues you perceived. Instead, you chose to abruptly shut down our account, causing significant disruption to our business operations.
Business owners should be aware that Maverick Payment appears to make decisions without gathering all the necessary facts. They have demonstrated very poor business practices by failing to reach out to us before taking such drastic action. I strongly advise any online business owner to think twice before entrusting their payment processing needs to Maverick, as they have shown a clear lack of due diligence and communication.
Furthermore, we have noticed that there are funds missing from our account, and as our payment processor, you are responsible for ensuring the proper handling of these transactions. Since you have failed to address this issue and have not provided any clarity on the matter, we have no choice but to escalate this situation. Our legal counsel will be tasked with proving these points in court, as it seems that this is the only way to resolve the matter and recover our missing funds.
We look forward to presenting our case and exposing the truth behind your company's actions. See you in court.
UPDATE JUNE 28th 2024
Dear Maverick Payments,
We do not accept your response. You assumed wrongdoing on our part and halted processing, costing our practice revenue and missing funds. Your actions were based on incorrect assumptions, and your incompetence has caused us considerable harm. Business owners, be warned about Maverick Payments. We have secured legal counsel specializing in merchant processors to ensure Maverick cannot harm another business. Your mistake has had serious consequences, and we will pursue all available avenues to address this.

Update #2:
We’d like to provide some more insight to help you understand our position. Card-not present prescription products are considered high-risk with the card brands (Visa, Mastercard, etc.) and require additional items to ensure we are in compliance with their rules. Generally speaking, card-not present pharmacies require the consultation and prescription prior to charging the cardholder.
As we have mentioned previously, your account was flagged as the transaction was being done before the actual consultation and prescription which caused concern on our end because the brands routinely mystery shop businesses and we felt if they were able to be charged before the consultation, they can interpret this as a non-compliance matter. Before this flagged with your account, we had seen this recently with another merchant for the first time who was also LegitScript accredited and when we brought this to their attention to get some clarity on how this factors into their accreditation process, they had pushed back to this merchant other stating the payment should be done after the prescription. We then recently brought this up with them again over the last week and they had given us a different response that it is actually okay with your business due to the controls you have in place. Again, this is a newer process where we historically haven’t seen an authorization / transaction attempted until after the consultation and prescription and we received conflicting information from the accreditation provider.
We wanted to err on the side of caution to avoid any type of fines and didn’t intend to disrupt your business. If you’d like to re-open your account with us, we’d be more than happy to review the controls you had provided to Legitscript and we appreciate your understanding in this matter.
As for the held and/or “missing” funds, we have no funds on hold. If you need assistance with reconciliation, please email us at [email protected] or open a ticket in the dashboard.
Hello Corey,
After a review of your business, we have clearly identified you as a card not present pharmacy merchant as you are registered as a pharmacy with LegitScript and you provide prescription products in a card not present environment. In addition, your business is processing transactions into interchange, for prescription products, without having cardholders consulted by a medical practitioner or being prescribed any medications. Prescription products cannot be sold until the cardholder has been evaluated and prescribed, by a licensed professional, and any deviation from this is against card brand rules. To that effect, we were unable to support your account. We have no funds on hold for your account and again, our stance is to ensure we are aligned with the card brands from a compliance perspective.
Thank you.

Best Acquirer I've ever dealt with!
I am an ISO and have been in the credit card processing Industry for over 20 years. Maverick is by far the very best acquirer that I have ever used. I first started using them because they board Ticketbroker Merchant accounts and when I noticed and appreciated how great their entire service is including swift Communication, Underwriting, Support, Risk, etc. are I now board all my Merchants with them.
