Adult Site Card Payment Integration

I’m launching a brand-new adult content platform and need a secure, fully compliant way for users to pay with their credit or debit cards. The site is already in development; what’s missing is the payment layer that can handle high-risk industry rules without friction for the customer.

Here’s what I need from you:

• Recommend and integrate a card-processing gateway that is comfortable working with adult content (Stripe, Authorize.net, Square, or another you know works better for this niche).
• Set up the full API flow—tokenisation, authorisation, capture, refunds, and webhooks for real-time status updates.
• Make sure the solution is PCI-DSS compliant, supports 3-D Secure where available, and passes sandbox testing before we move to production.
• Provide clear, step-by-step implementation notes so my in-house devs can maintain or extend the setup later.

The front-end is ready to call your endpoints, and I can give you SSH / API credentials the moment we agree on a gateway. I’d like to see the integration running end-to-end in a staging environment first, with at least one successful test transaction recorded. Once that’s confirmed, we’ll push to live.

If you’ve deployed card payment systems for other adult or high-risk sites, I’d love to hear about it—especially any workarounds you’ve used to keep approval times short.
