this was a few years back... so it's quite possible that I am misremembering. I do remember that it seemed like quite a lot, and these were the days before authorize.net was willing to hold the credit card numbers for you... between those two things, I decided that at the time, paypal was a much better option.


You're not misremembering at all. It depends on the market you're operating in. These holdbacks still exist.


I operated in the high risk space from 2002-2007 and we never had holdbacks that high. 5-10% was normal.


From which country ?

Define 'high risk' please ?
