Private aviation merchant account requirements

Underwriting is not looking for a reason to say no. It is looking for enough evidence to say yes, and most delays are a missing document rather than a decision.

What gets built for private aviation & aircraft services

Charter Payment Architecture

Accept a card deposit when the trip is booked while allowing higher-value balances to move over more economical rails such as ACH or wire. The deposit and the balance are different transactions doing different jobs, and pricing them as one is how aviation accounts end up expensive.

Corporate Card Optimization

Where supported, transmit enhanced commercial transaction data for eligible corporate purchasing cards instead of processing every invoice like a consumer purchase.

FBO & Fuel Payments

Build payment workflows around the things an FBO actually bills for, each with its own timing and its own approver.

International Client Payments

Support the workflows a foreign-issued card and a foreign counterparty need.

Aircraft Sales

A completely different payment workflow from charter, and it should not share one.

Show Us Your Average Ticket and Largest Ticket.

Those two numbers decide more about the right structure than anything else on an application.

The exact document list depends on the business rather than the industry, so we resolve it against what you tell us instead of sending everyone the same checklist. Pyper can give you yours in about a minute.

Applying commits you to nothing and is not an approval. The acquiring bank decides placement, pricing and terms — we build the file and tell you honestly what it is likely to meet.
