OIL, GAS & ENERGY SERVICES

Merchant account declined for an oil and gas business?

A decline is usually a file problem rather than a verdict on the business. Most of the time nobody explained which part, which is why the next application fails the same way.

What usually went wrong

In oil, gas & energy services, the same handful of things account for most declines. None of them is a verdict on the business.

A signed field ticket never becomes a paid invoice

Tie the ticket to the payment

Long jobs tie up all my cash

Structure progress billing

I hit my limit in a busy month

Size capacity to the peak

International customers slow everything down

Build the screening in

What we do differently

We will map where it stalls and what the payment structure should look like around it.

Being declined once does not disqualify a business. It does mean the next file has to answer the objection rather than repeat the application — and nobody can do that without knowing which objection it was.
