Overview

Process like a local, operate like a global business

Cross-border commerce fails quietly: prices in the wrong currency scare off buyers, and routing every payment through one country drags down authorization rates and adds fees.

Bear Merchant lets you show local prices, process through local acquirers for better approvals, and settle in the currencies your business actually needs — all from one integration and dashboard.

The rails your buyers already trust

Cards are only part of it. In most markets a local method converts better than an international card — so we support both.
