Quick Answer

High-ticket sales risk means each failed order carries more liability, so Stripe expects stronger proof, clearer policies, and tighter customer-outcome control.

What Stripe Is Likely Comparing

  • ticket size vs refund and dispute severity
  • fulfillment proof and delivery certainty
  • traffic quality for expensive offers

Operational Focus

Treat high-ticket cohorts as their own underwriting segment with stronger controls and clearer disclosures.
