Merchant accounts are approved for a monthly processing volume (sales) amount during the underwriting process with CMS. This limit may need to change when your business experiences additional sales volume from promotions, new products or natural growth of your business. 


To review requests for a Monthly volume increase, CMS requires a merchant to complete the Processing Limit Request form indicating the new requested volume, average ticket (if applicable) and the reason for the increase. The form must be signed by the original signer of the merchant application on the account.


Card Not Present accounts may be required to send:

  • Previous year business taxes returns
  • Audited Financial statements and/or current P&L and Balance sheets
  • Previous year of personal tax returns


This request must be approved by the sales agent AND Risk.
