CBD sales in the United States (U.S.) are set to surpass $20B by 20241, but today’s retailers selling these products have been left behind by many leading payment providers.

Also known as Clearent, Xplor Technologies is now one of the few providers offering reliable payment processing, specifically designed for the CBD industry.

This unique combination will help CBD retailers build lasting communities of buyers as they seamlessly accept payments across multiple sales channels and more easily promote their products to consumers. The solution also provides the ability to reduce operating costs by making back-office tasks more efficient.
“We look forward to supporting CBD businesses with our tailored Xplor Pay point-of-sale solution, which will help them reduce operating costs, improve profitability, and build lasting relationships with recurring customers,” said Matt Morrow, Chief Revenue Officer, Xplor Pay at Xplor Technologies. “We understand the pain points CBD retailers face, and we’re uniquely positioned to help them not only overcome these, but also drive more value in this exciting, fast-growing industry.”
With a proven history of supporting businesses in complex, highly regulated industries, Xplor Technologies is committed to helping CBD retailers and industry partners remain compliant with stringent regulations governing the sale of CBD products. Xplor has a team focused on staying up to date on federal, state, and local CBD regulations. In addition, it’s CBD payment processing solutions leverage risk monitoring tools on an ongoing basis, which helps businesses avoid unexpected shutdowns and surprises. In 2021, Xplor Technologies served 800 partners and helped over 78,000 businesses process $31 billion in payments.
