Timeshare resale companies face the most restrictive payment processing environment within the broader timeshare category. The resale segment's history of advance-fee complaints has led card networks and acquiring banks to apply heightened scrutiny to any merchant operating in the timeshare resale space. Processors that serve timeshare resale companies impose conditions that include extended reserve holds, delayed settlement, transaction monitoring for advance-fee patterns, and the constant possibility of account termination if a single complaint triggers a review.
Timeshare payment processing through 27 Blockchain provides resale companies with a payment channel that does not carry the category-specific restrictions that traditional processors impose. The crypto payment infrastructure processes transactions based on the blockchain interaction, not based on the merchant's sub-category classification within the timeshare industry. Resale companies that integrate crypto payments through 27 Blockchain gain processing stability that the traditional card system does not offer for their segment.
