Your industry. Your questions.
Answers about payment acceptance, refunds and connecting Cost+ to your store.
Which MCC commonly covers a sporting-goods shop?
MCC 5941 commonly covers sporting-goods stores. Equipment rental, activity bookings, clubs and other services may have different categories, even if they share the same outdoor brand.
Can I use this arrangement for activity or adventure bookings?
Bookings involve a service delivered later and need their own assessment. Do not assume a retail agreement for equipment automatically covers trips, lessons or adventure activities.
What should I disclose about pre-orders?
Explain when you take payment, expected delivery dates and how cancellations are handled. Advance orders can affect the acquiring review even when the same products are low-risk when sold from stock.
How do I start accepting payments with Cost+?
Create a Cost+ account, add your website in the dashboard and supply your business information. Complete the required checks, connect your integration and test payments and refunds before going live. Your acquiring offer and approval depend on the business review.
Is a partial refund charged differently from a full refund?
The fixed refund fee applies to each successful refund, whether full or partial. It is not a percentage of the refunded amount. Multiple successful partial refunds are charged separately. See the fee schedule for your agreement and selected currency.
Can I offer Apple Pay and Google Pay on my store?
Cost+ supports these wallets through its hosted checkout and API where enabled for your configuration. They are not available through Cost+ on Shopify: Shopify does not allow third-party providers to offer them. For other platforms, check the integration’s supported payment methods.
