THE SURCHARGE PROGRAM


We offer two primary pricing options designed specifically for firearm-related businesses.

” ZERO ” – Under ZERO, the merchant does not pay per-transaction credit card processing costs.

ZERO uses a dual pricing model – Customers are shown both a cash price and a credit card price before making a payment decision!

A surcharge program helps business owners keep more of every sale by shifting rising credit‑card processing costs back to the customers who choose the more expensive payment method. This protects margins, avoids across‑the‑board price increases, and can meaningfully reduce operating expenses. The core advantages are well‑documented: offsetting processing costs, preserving margins, maintaining competitive pricing, and encouraging lower‑cost payment methods.

” ZERO PLUS ” – Under ZERO PLUS the merchant pays per transaction credit card processing & Interchange Plus Pricing

ZERO PLUS is designed for businesses that prefer one price for every customer regardless of payment method.

With ZERO PLUS, both cash-paying and credit card-paying customers contribute to the overall cost of accepting cards because processing expenses are treated as a standard operating expense of doing business.

The merchant pays wholesale interchange costs plus a clearly disclosed markup from ZERO Merchant Systems. Processing expenses are paid by the business and spread across all sales rather than being separated by payment type.

FFL Licenses

For Federal Firearms License holders, manufacturers, distributors, shooting ranges, firearms instructors, gunsmiths, Gun Broker sellers, and other firearm-related businesses, choosing the wrong payment processor can create unnecessary risk, interrupted payment acceptance, frozen funds, or account closures.
