Cannabis Merchant Services · Canada
Cannabis credit & debit card solutions, made in Canada.
Cannabis is fully legal in Canada for both medical and recreational use. Thanks to better financial frameworks, dispensaries can now accept Interac debit and e-Transfer payments without inflated fees or cash reserves withheld. A major step forward for the industry, and for customers who want convenience and discretion.

How a Canadian cannabis transaction moves
Tap to deposit, in under 24 hours.
Interac is the rail. BPS handles the underwriting, settlement, and the human on the other end of the phone.

Customer taps card
Interac debit at the dispensary terminal — chip, tap, or insert.
- Step 02
Real-time approval
Interac confirms in roughly two seconds, on or off network.
- Step 03
BPS settles overnight
Funds clear through our underwriter on the next business day.
- Step 04
Money in your account
Clean deposit, no holds, no surprise reserves.
What's included
Why partner with Brother Processing?
Expert in the cannabis industry
A decade of experience in Canadian cannabis payment processing. We invest in the long-term success of the industry.
Interac & e-Transfer
Direct integration with Interac debit and e-Transfer. The most-used payment methods in Canadian cannabis retail.
Credit & debit for accessories
For accessories, paraphernalia, and cannabis ancillary businesses, full credit and debit acceptance on the same merchant relationship.
No longer high risk
Cannabis is no longer treated as a high-risk industry by many Canadian processors. Approved, compliant, future-ready.
How it works
Three steps from conversation to processing.
01
Let's chat
Book a 15-minute discovery call or fill in the short form. We learn about your business, your goals, and where you process today.
02
Game plan
A real person in our Montreal office reviews your file, compares rates, and matches you to the right Canadian banking partner.
03
Set up
Equipment ships, your gateway goes live, you start processing. Then the real partnership begins: direct support every day from the same team.
Why no credit cards for cannabis?
Visa and Mastercard prohibit cannabis-coded transactions on their networks. Not a BPS choice, every Canadian cannabis processor faces the same constraint. Canadians prefer Interac debit anyway. For US cannabis, Cashless ATM solves the same problem (different mechanism).
How fast do funds settle?
Interac debit settles next business day. ACH settles next business day. e-Transfer is immediate.
What if my current processor drops me?
Call us first. We have onboarded operators in under 72 hours when their previous processor exited the cannabis vertical. No drama, no panic.
Why partner with BPS
More than a processor. A true business partner.
Side-by-side, in plain language. Every claim below maps to something a current BPS merchant could verify on a phone call.
