Supplement payment gateways for ShipBob clients

Online sales of supplements and other nutritional products have been increasing a lot over the past few years. But what many supplement website owners find is that, even though their customers love their products, major payment processors often do not. Because of the “high-risk” designation, nutritional supplements usually land on the “prohibited products” list for PayPal, Stripe, and others. Fortunately, Organic Payment Gateways has lots of experience at finding payment gateways and merchant accounts that work just right for nutritional supplement websites.

How to Choose a Supplement Fulfillment Company

by Organic Payment Gateways November 30, 2021

Some online merchants who sell supplements and natural remedies start out small and may not look into partnering with a fulfillment company until they reach a certain level of growth. Others start out bigger and want to work with a fulfillment company from day one.

Regardless of where you’re at in your business journey, working with a fulfillment company can give you as a business owner some relief from having to do everything on your own, without having to hire additional staff. Below, we’ll share some considerations for choosing a fulfillment company that is appropriate for your products and your business’s well-being.

High-risk considerations

Supplements and natural remedy products are often considered a “high-risk” product type, and for this reason supplements are not allowed under some fulfillment companies’ policies. Even though they might be harder to find, reliable supplement-friendly fulfillment companies do exist, which is why we’ve put together some tips for finding the one that works best for your supplement business.

Things to look for in a supplement fulfillment company

Here are some of the most important qualities that we’ve seen in good fulfillment companies, so keep these different aspects of business in mind when you make your choice.

Allowing supplements as a product type

This one is obvious, but it’s still the best place to begin. Any fulfillment company you are considering for your supplement business must allow your specific products. And this is one area where you don’t want to make assumptions or settle for an indirect or unclear statement. The company you’re considering should be able to verify, in writing, that they allow the types of supplements and natural remedies that you carry so you’ll know your products are accepted before you begin working with them.

Transparent pricing

Pricing for fulfillment companies can get complicated because they cover so many different parts of the order-fulfillment process: storage, picking, packaging, shipping, reporting, and more. When you are considering working with a company, it’s important that you find out exactly how much each of these services costs, and whether those charges are per order, per item, per month, or based on something else.

For example, what is their storage charge per pallet? How much does each pick cost? You’ll also want to know what types of shipping they offer. When a fulfillment company is up-front about its costs and about which services are included in those costs and which aren’t, it makes it easier for you to compare companies and make an accurate decision about which one is best for your supplement business.

Software integration

For your order processing to be seamless, it’s important for your fulfillment company’s software to integrate with what your business uses, whether that’s a popular shopping cart like Shopify or WooCommerce, or other software. That way you can transition easily to working with the company without having to switch to another platform. Also, think about what other kinds of technology you would like to see from a fulfillment company. Do they offer order-management software and other things that are useful to you, such as analytics?

Return management

Returns are an inevitable part of selling products online, even though you work hard to exceed customer expectations. Look for a fulfillment company that manages returns in an effective and affordable way and gets the returned products back to your inventory efficiently. Find out what the costs are for things like return shipping and restocking.

Scalability

Regardless of your business’s current size and reach, growth often means expanding into new markets and locations. Make sure that you choose a fulfillment company that is able to grow with your supplement business, at whatever speed that ends up being. If your fulfillment company has the scale and resources to easily facilitate your growth, you’ll be in a much better position to expand smoothly when the time comes, and without added costs.

Customer Service

You will want to be able to communicate easily with your fulfillment company. Look for a company that makes it easy and free to get in touch with them and offers helpful support when you need it. Also, if a fulfillment company has customer service representatives at each of its warehouse locations, it will make it easier for any issues that come up to get solved more quickly and effectively.

Customization

The experience your customers have when they open an order is important – it can even affect your business’s reviews and referrals. If you have packaging that uses specific designs or branding logos, or other ways to use packaging to make your customer’s orders special, make sure that this is something your fulfillment company can accommodate at a reasonable cost. Custom packaging and branding can help you stand out from other supplement businesses and can even affect return rates in a positive way.

Help with choosing the right fulfillment company for supplements

Weighing all your options for a fulfillment company can feel like a daunting task, even if you’ve already narrowed it down to ones that accept supplement websites as clients.

At Organic Payment Gateways, we’ve had years of experience working with e-commerce supplement businesses, and we’ve learned a lot about which fulfillment companies work best for businesses that sell high-risk products like supplements.

How to Choose a CBD Fulfillment Company

by Organic Payment Gateways November 30, 2021

No matter what stage your CBD e-commerce business is in, you may be considering partnering with a fulfillment company so that you can streamline the shipping process and focus more of your time on other aspects of the business. Some CBD businesses start out small and may only come to this decision after being in business for a long time. Others start out big and know from the get-go that they’ll want to find a reliable fulfillment company to do business with right away. Whatever your situation, working with a fulfillment company can allow you to reach a satisfying balance between the burden of having to do everything yourself and the expense of hiring more staff. In this article, we want to help you with this decision by pointing out some important things to look for in a fulfillment company, especially for CBD business owners.

Potential challenges

As CBD business owners know, selling products from a high-risk industry can come with challenges, and you will tend to hear the word “no” a lot more often than traditional businesses. This also applies to finding a fulfillment company, since many do not allow high-risk products like CBD, and among those that do, figuring out which of them would be a good fit for you can be tricky. But CBD-friendly fulfillment companies are out there, and below, we’ll share some considerations for choosing a fulfillment company that is appropriate for your products and your CBD business’s bottom line.

Things to look for in a CBD fulfillment company

CBD fulfillment companies - the basics - Organic Payment Gateways - content image Here are some of the most important factors to consider when you are choosing a reliable fulfillment company for your online CBD business.\

Allowing CBD products

This one is a no-brainer, but it’s still the best place to start. Make sure that any fulfillment company you are considering for your CBD business allows CBD products. And don’t settle for a casual, over-the-phone affirmation – before you begin your business relationship, make sure to have a verification from the company, in writing, that they allow the types of CBD products that you carry so you’ll have up-front assurance that your products are accepted.

Software integration

Whether your CBD business uses WooCommerce, Shopify, or another major shopping cart or other software, you’ll want to make sure that any fulfillment company you are considering uses software that integrates with yours. That way your order processing will be seamless, and you can continue to use the software you are familiar with. It’s also helpful to look at what types of technology the company uses and what they offer business owners in terms of order-management software and analytics.

Transparent Pricing

Fulfillment companies cover a lot of different aspects of order processing, from storing your specific products in a warehouse, to picking, packaging, shipping, reporting, and more. That’s why it’s important that your fulfillment company is up-front with you about exactly how much each of these services will cost and whether each cost is per item, per order, or based on other factors like time or item weight (depending on the service). You don’t want to be surprised by hidden fees or to discover later that a necessary service is not included. When a company’s pricing and services are clearly spelled out, you’ll have the information you need to compare companies accurately and make the best decision for your CBD business.

Return management

Returns are, unfortunately, a part of doing business, as much as you work hard to keep your customers satisfied. How will your fulfillment company manage returns? What costs are associated with return shipping and restocking? Look for a company that offers affordable returns and is able to efficiently get your returned products back into your inventory.

Customer service

If you have questions or if complications come up over the course of business, you’ll want a fulfillment company that has customer support available when you need it. In addition, look for a company that has representatives at each of their warehouse locations so that no matter where your orders or specific inventory items are at a given point, someone will be right there to assist in solving problems that may arise.

Scalability

Whether your CBD business is small and locally focused or large with a broader reach, a good fulfillment company should enable you to expand easily if necessary. You may start small but reach a point where you’re ready to grow into new locations, and you’ll be in a much better position with a fulfillment company that has the network and capabilities to facilitate your business’s expansion without extra expenses.

Customization

Do you prefer to ship orders using boxes or envelopes with specific logos or designs, or do you have other ways to make your packages look special on the inside and outside? This can affect your customers’ experience in a positive way, and when customers have a good experience opening their orders, they’re more likely to give good reviews and referrals. If custom packaging and branding options are important to you, look for a fulfillment company that provides these services at an affordable cost.

Help with choosing the right fulfillment company for CBD

Even after you eliminate from consideration companies that don’t accept CBD, there can be a lot of options to go through when deciding on the right fulfillment company for your business. At Organic Payment Gateways, we’ve had years of experience working with CBD e-commerce businesses, and we’ve learned a lot about which fulfillment companies work best for businesses that sell high-risk products like CBD. If you would like some help or advice in finding a fulfillment company for your online CBD business, please reach out to us at 800-570-1347, or fill out the short contact form below.

Many delta 8 website owners have found out the hard way that the payment gateway that comes built into their site builder does not allow high-risk products.

Delta 8, CBD, and Delta 10 products are not compatible with most major payment processors, like PayPal, Stripe, and Square.

We believe you should have the ability to accept payments for legal Delta 8 and Delta 10 products online using the tools that work best for you, whether that’s Shopify, Wix, WooCommerce, or others.

Why your payment processing needs special attention

Payment processing is a delicate thing for any business. It doesn’t matter whether you’re selling teacups or (more relevantly) if you’re selling weight loss supplements. The difference, however, is when you’re selling weight-loss products, you’re actually selling high-risk products.

If you’ve come across any stigma or raised eyebrows for being a high-risk business owner – don’t worry. We support you! Yet, the fact remains that most payment gateways and credit card processors classify supplements in general as high-risk products. As a result, you’re far more likely to face pushback. However, you’re not alone, and you do have options.

At Organic Payment Gateways, we’ve dedicated our entire business to helping business owners just like you get the very best payment gateway possible. If you’ve set your heart on using Shopify, the good news is that we can couple you with the payment gateway you need to more efficiently and safely accept supplement payments.

Why use Shopify for your weight loss supplement business?

There are plenty of reasons why anyone would want to use Shopify for their business. Their e-commerce features are pretty great to begin with – not to mention how impressive it can get once you dive into their library of third-party applications. What Shopify does well is that it offers you a good amount of freedom to design your site. However, other platforms and e-commerce solutions might exceed Shopify from a digital/visual design standpoint. What makes Shopify truly stand out is just how powerful its e-commerce suite actually is.

The amount of control you get through their product management, sales funnel options, marketing tracking, and search engine optimization is truly quite something!

However, when you’re selling weight loss supplements, what truly makes Shopify stand out is that we can easily integrate it with a payment gateway that works for your product type. We can provide you with a high-risk payment gateway that is ideal for weight loss supplement sales. We’ll integrate it with Shopify for you, test it, and make sure everything works as it should.

All you need to do is get in touch with us here. We’re more than happy to give some friendly advice – or even set you up straight away.

We specialize in providing the best possible high-risk payment gateway for CBD and supplement businesses.
