Merchant of Record for Digital Subscriptions

Forge Your
Monetization Strategy

PayForge sells and delivers digital subscriptions to consumers as the merchant of record. We own the customer transaction, taxes, refunds, and chargebacks — and source content from our partner suppliers.

What We Offer

Merchant of Record Services

As the seller of record, PayForge owns the full commercial relationship with the consumer — from checkout to tax to support — and compensates content suppliers under separate licensing agreements.

Seller of Record

PayForge is the merchant on every transaction. The consumer purchases from us under our terms of sale, and our name appears on their statement.

Tax, Refunds & Disputes

We collect and remit applicable sales tax and VAT, issue refunds under our policy, and absorb all chargeback liability as the merchant of record.

Supplier Licensing

Under our reseller agreements, content partners license PayForge to sell their subscriptions in exchange for a revenue-share licensing fee on each consumer sale.

How It Works

From Partner Content to Consumer Sale

PayForge licenses subscription content from creators and studios, then sells it to consumers as the merchant of record.

1

Partners license their content

Creators and studios grant PayForge the right to sell their subscriptions under a reseller agreement — with no payment accounts or processing on their side.

2

PayForge sells to consumers

Consumers subscribe directly with PayForge as the seller of record. We own checkout, billing, the statement descriptor, tax, refunds, and chargebacks.

3

Partners earn revenue share

Partners earn a revenue-share licensing fee under their agreement — compensated as suppliers, never as merchants on our accounts.

How PayForge Operates

We Are the Merchant of Record

PayForge Services FZE is licensed by its partner suppliers to sell their digital subscription content, and sells it to consumers as the seller of record. When a consumer subscribes, they are transacting with PayForge — not with the supplier.

Our name on the statement. Consumers see PAYFORGE SERVICES on their card and agree to our terms of sale at checkout.

We own tax compliance. PayForge registers for, collects, and remits applicable sales tax and VAT.

We own refunds & disputes. All refunds and chargebacks are handled and absorbed by PayForge as the merchant.

Suppliers are vendors. Content partners license us to sell and are paid on a revenue-share basis; they are not merchants on our payment accounts.

As the merchant of record, PayForge holds direct merchant accounts in good standing and operates in full compliance with the terms of our payment partners, including Stripe and PayPal.
