What merchant category (MCC) is Paybis?

6051Non-financial institutions: foreign currency, money orders, crypto and quasi-cash
Crypto and quasi-cash purchases are classified as high-risk purchases by Visa and our issuing bank, so payments to merchants in this category will be declined by Halocard. See Halocard's merchant restrictions.

What is Halocard?

A US-issued Visa credit card that works like a debit card, with a separate virtual card for each merchant you pay. Set a spending limit, lock a card or cancel it from the dashboard at any time.

It cannot be used at Paybis, but works wherever Visa is accepted outside the high-risk categories that are unsupported.

Why Halocard cannot be used at Paybis

Paybis is charged under the crypto and quasi-cash purchases category, which Visa and our issuing bank classify as high-risk, so Halocard declines payments to it on every card. This is a Halocard rule, not a Paybis rule. This covers every crypto purchase Paybis takes by card, including purchases made through the Paybis checkout inside partner apps such as RedotPay.

What you can do instead

  • Pay with a Visa or Mastercard from your own bank, after checking that your bank allows crypto purchases.
  • Use Apple Pay or Google Pay with a card from your own bank.
  • Pay with PayPal, Skrill, Neteller or Revolut Pay.
  • Pay by Online Banking (ACH) from your own bank account in dollars.

Tips for successful payments at Paybis

  • AcceptedPay with a personal card in your own name. The name on the card must match the ID you verified with Paybis.
  • AcceptedAsk your card issuer to allow crypto purchases and international online payments before you buy.
  • AcceptedEnroll the card in 3D Secure, so your bank can approve the payment with a code or in its app.
  • AcceptedBuy at least $4 of crypto with a card, or $10 for ETH, ERC-20 tokens and DOT.
