2A-FRIENDLY PAYMENT PROCESSING

Your Processor Should Understand Your Business.

Firearm retailers shouldn’t have to explain their industry to the company processing their payments.

Trident 1 connects payment processing directly with the POS used to run your gun store or shooting range.

The problem

FIREARMS AREN'T GENERIC RETAIL.

Gun stores and shooting ranges operate in a business category that some traditional payment providers don’t fully understand or choose not to support.

Your payment solution needs to work with your retail operation—and your provider needs to understand the business you’re in.

Trident 1 brings payment processing into the same environment your employees already use to run the counter, range, memberships, and customer transactions.

DON'T CHOOSE A PROCESSOR ON RATE ALONE.

When evaluating payment processing for a gun store or shooting range, consider more than the advertised transaction rate. Look at:
  • Firearm-industry acceptance
  • Contract terms
  • Processing fees
  • Hardware costs
  • POS integration
  • Chargeback support
  • Funding
  • Customer service
  • Recurring billing
  • Transparency
The cheapest advertised rate isn’t necessarily the lowest total cost—or the right fit for an FFL.

2A Payments, answered.

2A-friendly payment processing refers to merchant payment services that support lawful businesses operating in the firearms industry, including gun stores, FFL dealers, and shooting ranges.

Licensed firearm retailers can generally accept card payments, subject to applicable laws and the policies and underwriting requirements of their merchant services provider.

FFL dealers should consider industry experience, provider policies, fees, contract terms, hardware, POS integration, customer support, funding, chargebacks, recurring billing needs, and total processing cost.

Payment providers establish their own underwriting policies and risk requirements. Some providers restrict or decline certain firearm-related businesses even when those businesses are operating lawfully.

Trident 1 provides integrated payment-processing options designed to work with its FFL POS and broader Business Operating System.

Trident 1 supports membership-management and recurring-billing workflows for applicable shooting-range operations.

Yes. Trident 1's payment capabilities are designed to support gun stores, shooting ranges, and businesses operating both retail and range operations.

Payment-processing requirements and available options should be discussed with the Trident 1 team based on the individual business and its needs.
