Want to sell CBD on Shopify in the UK, but stuck choosing a payment provider?
With Shopify Payments off the table for CBD, UK merchants need third-party options. This guide compares 2025’s top CBD-compatible processors—so you can pick the safest, most cost-effective solution that works with your Shopify store.
What Makes a Payment Processor “CBD-Compatible” on Shopify?
Most payment providers block or restrict CBD sales—even if your products are legal. That’s because CBD is classified as high-risk. To be CBD-compatible, a payment processor must:
- Explicitly support CBD or high-risk merchants
- Work with UK-based Shopify stores
- Offer stable approvals and ongoing support
- Provide realistic fees and clear compliance terms
