FAQ

How fast can I be approved?

Most complete applications get a decision within 24 hours (business days). A real underwriter reviews your file, and if anything is missing, we'll tell you exactly what we need.

What documents do I need?

Usually a voided check or bank letter, a government-issued ID for each owner, and your recent processing statements if you have them. Specialty businesses may need a few more, like licenses or a product list.

Do you support online vape sales?

In some cases, yes. Online vape sales come with extra federal and shipping rules, so we review them case by case during underwriting. If you're approved, we'll support your online sales alongside your in-store ones.

Will you hold my funds?

We don't hold funds by default. If your business needs a reserve, we'll tell you before you sign, in writing, with how much and for how long.

Can I keep my current POS?

In most cases, yes. Tell us which POS you use, and we'll confirm how Rapid Tap works with it before you sign.

Is there a contract?

No long-term contract. Service is month-to-month, and you can leave without an early termination fee.
