Expert support. Custom-fit payment solutions.
We help online businesses process payments smoothly and securely — even in complex or high-risk industries. From merchant account setup to chargeback mitigation, reserve negotiation, and compliance, we create payment strategies that reduce risk, resolve issues like frozen accounts or shutdowns, and support long-term growth with trusted banking relationships and expert guidance.
Most merchants only think about payments when something goes wrong — a freeze, a reserve, or a batch of declined transactions.
At DirectPayNet, we design systems that prevent those issues before they happen, giving you stability, higher approval rates, and peace of mind as you scale.
DirectPayNet is led by Maria Sparagis, a payment industry expert with over 20 years of experience helping online businesses in nearly every vertical overcome complex processing challenges. From startups to established enterprises processing millions monthly, Maria has seen it all — and knows how to create solutions that last.
If you’re facing payment challenges or want to optimize your setup, explore Maria’s YouTube Channel for practical advice on payment processing, chargebacks, and scaling strategies.
For merchants processing seven figures or more per month who need specialized consulting, reach out to our team to see if working directly with Maria can help strengthen your payment infrastructure and unlock new growth opportunities.

Yes, DirectPayNet can help. Many popular payment service providers like Stripe, Shopify Payments, and Square have very low risk thresholds and may shut down accounts quickly. If you’ve been shut down by your payment processor, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re out of options.
However, if your business has been placed on the TMF (Terminated Merchant File) or MATCH list—a payment industry blacklist—it can complicate the approval process and require additional steps and documentation. We have experience navigating TMF and MATCH list businesses and will work with you to find the best solutions to get you processing again.
