Merchant Account for Firearms and Weapons
Businesses that sell firearms, weapons, and ammunition are federally regulated businesses in an industry that has seen an increase in sales over the last several years. These businesses must obtain a Federal Firearms License (FFL) in order to legally sell and trade firearms. In addition, it is important to have a merchant account which can be hard to obtain
Why are Firearm Merchant Accounts High-Risk?
Even though these businesses run in a highly regulated industry they are automatically seen as high-risk. Many banks and other providers may try to avoid offering businesses merchant accounts due to the bad publicity and reputation of weapons. In addition when transactions are online it is common to see chargebacks due to reverse payments and other reasons.

Zero Cost Credit Card Processing-As a business, you also have the option to choose zero-fee processing for your head shop. We are friendly towards smoke shops and friendly on saving you money on transaction fees. Many businesses are charged by processors between 3-4% but as a business you can choose the option to have customers pay all the transaction fees. With this method, your terminal can have signage informing customers of the fee and can then remind them when swiping their card the terminal notifies them of the fee and allows them to accept or use a different payment and covers the fee so that your business gets 100% of the sale. It is also suitable for in person transactions so that the customer can pay cash rather than use their card and paying the fees.
