If your business or product falls within these categories, we regret to inform you that your application will be denied

NomuPay cannot service businesses which sell illegal products or are involved in any illegal activity. This applies to the following products and services:

Some businesses are legal only when complying with some specific laws or rules. They either should have special licences or age verification. It can be difficult to check this online; as such, these products and services are also prohibited:

  • Tobacco and e-cigarettes

  • Steroids
  • ESTA, Immigration/Visa passport
  • Cyberlockers
  • Files sharing and storage

Some merchants are too troublesome to work with because of very high dispute and chargeback rates. Sometimes customers need to wait too long for a service/product to be delivered. In some other cases, a product/service could not be delivered at all due to unforeseen circumstances. Considerable customer dissatisfaction makes such businesses prohibited:

  • Get rich schemes
  • Ticket brokers
  • Timeshares
  • Precious metals/materials
  • Stamps and coins
  • Extended warranties
  • Telemarketing companies
  • Delayed delivery merchants

Some industries are more liable to fraud than others. That is why financial institutions are not allowed to accept the following companies to prevent any criminal activity and money laundering:

  • 3rd party/aggregation
  • Collection agencies
  • Payday lenders
  • Credit repair companies
  • Loan modification
  • Government loans
  • PPI claims
  • Penny auctions
