I recently went to all electronic. POS, FFL Books, Fingerprints, etc. It has been a challenge for me but Rich with tactical pay has been a real asset. He always has time and gets me going asap. Thanks Rich and Tactical Pay.

GunBroker Payment Gateway FAQ

What is a GunBroker payment gateway?

A payment gateway securely transmits customer payment data to your processor. A GunBroker payment gateway is one that's compatible with a firearms-friendly processor and connects directly with the GunBroker platform. TacticalPay works with leading gateways — including Authorize.net and NMI — that integrate seamlessly with GunBroker.

Why do GunBroker sellers need a specialized payment gateway?

Mainstream processors like Square and Stripe prohibit firearms sales — and since 2022, GunBroker has also banned PayPal, Venmo, and Zelle for firearms transactions. A firearms-friendly merchant account and payment gateway ensure you can accept credit card payments on GunBroker and elsewhere with confidence.

What payment processors and gateways are allowed on GunBroker?

GunBroker publishes a list of preferred compatible providers. Preferred gateways include Authorize.net, NMI, Fluid Pay, Fortis, and Elavon; preferred processors include ETI, EBizCharge, Fort Point Payments, Inovio, and ECRYPT. Being on GunBroker's preferred list means platform compatibility — not necessarily the best pricing. Many sellers find that working with a firearms-specialized provider like TacticalPay results in better rates and more personalized support.

What is GunBroker Immediate Checkout?

Immediate Checkout lets buyers pay directly through GunBroker the moment a listing ends — funds go straight to your bank account through your connected gateway. It's faster and more professional than Standard Checkout, where buyers contact you separately to arrange payment. To use it, you'll need a merchant account tied to one of GunBroker's supported gateways.

How do I apply for a payment gateway for my GunBroker business through TacticalPay?

Applying is straightforward. Complete your application online, and our team will review your business and provide a competitive price quote. No confusing paperwork, no drawn-out back-and-forth. Our Texas-based support team is available by phone or email if you have questions along the way.
