Debit only United States and Canada
Debit that dispensaries can actually accept.
Bank Dispensary helps dispensaries in the United States and Canada take debit. At the counter, and online where that actually works. Credit cards aren't part of this.
The problem
Why debit for cannabis retail is still hard.
A dispensary can be allowed to operate where it is and still be turned away by ordinary card programs. That happens in the United States and in Canada. Credit acceptance is the fragile part. Cash-only is the usual fallback, and it costs the business every day. Debit is a separate setup, not a nickname for cards.
If it only works by calling debit a credit card, it's not what we do.
-
Credit is the wrong product
Credit-card programs are a poor fit for cannabis retail, and approvals often get pulled. Building the counter on that is how a day's sales get stranded. We don't set up credit cards.
-
Cash-only has a daily cost
No electronic tender means more cash on site, slower reconciliation, and customers who expected to pay with a card.
-
Debit needs its own setup
Debit at the counter, and debit for online orders, aren't a switch on a regular merchant account. The counter, the sales channel, and the paperwork all have to be looked at on purpose.
What you get

We help you sort out debit at the counter, and online if that fits your shop, then walk the onboarding with you. Same conversation in the United States and in Canada.

Online, where it applies
Some shops can take debit on online orders. Some can't, with the setup they use today. We'll tell you straight if it isn't a fit, instead of hinting at a checkout you won't get.
