Firearms Retailers Merchant Accounts

Pricing

Although the firearm industry is considered high risk, it doesn’t mean you must pay high fees for merchant services.

It’s true an adult business merchant account will incur higher fees than a traditional merchant account considered low risk by the merchant processing industry.

Unfortunately, most merchant processing companies will take unfair advantage of you being in the high risk category and charge exorbitant fees. You won’t hear this from your adult merchant account provider, but each and every high risk merchant processing company uses a particular ISO that works with the bank. That’s how the industry works.

The ISO sets a fee which the merchant processing company can’t go below, but they can go higher and they do. The merchant processing company you contacted marks up that fee, 9 out of 10 times, way more than they should. At First Card Payments, our mission is to create long lasting client relationships. We put the same level of care into creating relationships with our clients, the banks, and ISO’s that we partner with to provide adult merchant account solutions.

Honesty and transparency are our calling cards. You get lower fees and we maintain a long lasting client relationship; it’s a win-win.

Why First Card Payments

• No application or setup fees (unlike just about everybody else). We don’t believe in nickel and diming you or hiding fees that you won’t see until later.
• Most times there will be no early termination fees or cancellation fees, which means this agreement is month to month, so you can leave anytime without consequences.
• Whether you’ve been in business many years or you have at least 6 months of prior processing history, 99% of the time First Card Payments will save you a minimum of 25% of the markup of your current fees.
• Over the past decade we have accumulated over 30+ relationships with banks and ISOs. Some of these relationships are personal and directly with the owners, presidents, and CEOS of these companies. That can only be a big advantage for approvals which may need special considerations.
• No matter the situation- termination reasons (high chargebacks, bad credit, card not present (CNP))- we have additional solutions that will accept almost any situation.
