Since 2015, Tower Payments has provided reliable credit card processing for businesses in specialized industries throughout the USA and Canada. Founded by Nyah Penney, our company was built on a simple principle: legitimate businesses deserve professional payment processing, regardless of their industry category.
Nyah established Tower Payments after recognizing that countless lawful e-commerce merchants were struggling with payment processing simply because their industries fell outside traditional processors’ comfort zones. Her vision was clear—create a payment processing company that combines competitive rates with the stability these businesses need to grow.
Tower Payments provides payment processing to thousands of websites that require more than cookie-cutter solutions. We understand the unique challenges of specialized industries, and we’ve developed the expertise, banking relationships, and technical infrastructure to serve them effectively. When traditional processors say no, we ask, “How can we make this work?”
We’re proud to be the payment processing partner of choice for nutritional supplement companies, CBD retailers, and cannabis seed businesses—industries that deserve professional, reliable service despite regulatory complexities. We also expertly serve online headshops, tobacco retailers, dating platforms, and adult toy retailers, bringing the same level of dedication to every merchant we work with. You can review some of the products and services we support on our high-risk industries page.
What sets us apart? Independence. We’re not locked into any single processing solution, which means we can genuinely advocate for your business. We negotiate competitive rates on your behalf, provide hands-on support when you need it most, maintain your accounts in excellent standing, seamlessly configure your payment gateway, and ensure your high-risk merchant accounts run smoothly. These aren’t add-on services—they’re fundamental to how we operate.
Under Nyah’s leadership—backed by years of insider expertise in high-risk merchant services—Tower Payments delivers the reliable, transparent credit card processing that ambitious businesses deserve. Whether you’re using Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Wix, or other platforms, we integrate seamlessly with your existing setup.
