Auction houses and online auctions operate in a unique environment that requires specialized payment processing solutions. As a high-risk industry handling valuable items and high-value transactions, many traditional payment processors shy away from auction businesses.

Online, timed, and virtual auctions run almost entirely on card-not-present payments, which carry more fraud and chargeback exposure than in-person transactions — especially on high-ticket lots. That elevated card-not-present risk is a major reason online auctions are grouped with other high-risk processing industries and why many mainstream processors hesitate to approve them.
PayKings builds credit card processing for online auctions around those realities:
