Merchant support

Firearms merchant accounts built to stay open.

We set up licensed firearms merchants on dedicated accounts with acquiring banks that support the category — at retail, online, at gun shows, and at the range. You get transparent processing, your own merchant ID under your DBA, and none of the sudden shutdowns or frozen funds that come from boarding on platforms that don't allow firearms. Your account is structured for firearms from day one, by an underwriting team that has done it many times before.

Why firearms merchants choose BIG.

01

Placed correctly from day one

We board you with acquiring banks that support firearms transactions — not generic platforms that approve you fast, then close the account when firearm sales show up. Stable from the first authorization.

02

True merchant accounts, not aggregators

Dedicated merchant IDs that belong to your business — not a shared aggregator or payment facilitator. Transparent processing, and your own statement under your DBA.

03

FFL expertise in the underwriting room

Our underwriting team knows FFL requirements, ATF compliance, and the documentation that keeps processing stable for the long term. You're not the first FFL your underwriter has boarded.

Reviews on Google

Real 5-star reviews on Google. No edits, no incentives — just merchants who’ve been told no everywhere else.

Service & Platform · Highly Recommend

Highly recommend—professional, kind, easy to work with.

I'm very happy and satisfied with the service and platform. I've always had someone I can reach out to directly whenever I have questions, and they're always quick to help and follow up. On top of that, they regularly check in just to see how things are going, which I really appreciate. Their pricing is fair, and overall, they're incredibly professional, kind, and easy to work with. Highly recommend!
