At Zenti, we understand that many payment processors are hesitant to work with firearm merchant accounts due to the industry’s strict regulations and political controversies surrounding firearms in general. We also know the challenges of payment processing in the firearms industry, so we have spent years building partnerships with gun-friendly credit card companies, processors, and banks that are friendly to FFL and firearms-related businesses.
These partnerships allow us to support gun and ammo merchants with low prices, stable payment processing, and fair treatment. Unlike other payment processors that freeze payouts or unfairly close accounts, we are committed to providing our clients with the payment processing solutions they need to succeed.

Yes! A firearm dealer or manufacturer must have a Federal Firearms License (FFL) to get a merchant account. The FFL is a license issued by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) that allows individuals or businesses to sell firearms.
However, if you’re only looking to sell ammunition, you’re not required to have your FFL to apply for a merchant account, but you still may be required to obtain your FFL to operate your business legally, depending on your state or local gun laws.
The answer is an automatic yes if you operate an online gun store. Online gun and ammo merchants are high-risk due to the lack of face-to-face interaction with customers and the inherent risks associated with the firearms industry.
However, If you sell firearms and ammunition in person, our team of experts at Zenti may be able to qualify you for a low-risk merchant account, which can save you hundreds in fees!
Whether high or low-risk, Zenti can offer you the best possible pricing for your merchant account.
Yes! We have experience working with setting up payment gateways for online marketplaces that require you to have your own processor. A few of the most popular online marketplaces we work with are Gunbroker, GunsAmerica and Armslist.
Gun stores and FFLs usually have a favorite POS software that they use to keep track of their sales. Luckily, Zenti works with Authorize.net and NMI, which means we can integrate merchant accounts with most POS systems.
At Zenti, we have plenty of experience working with high-risk and low-risk gun and ammunition merchants. Our payment and business solutions are tailored to your specific needs as a firearm merchant, so you can focus on running your business.
