I recently went to all electronic. POS, FFL Books, Fingerprints, etc. It has been a challenge for me but Rich with tactical pay has been a real asset. He always has time and gets me going asap. Thanks Rich and Tactical Pay.

Mobile Processing FAQ

Can I take cards at gun shows and the range?

Yes. A mobile reader pairs with your phone or tablet so you can accept chip, tap, Apple Pay, and swipe wherever you set up — gun shows, ranges, and field sales — all on a firearms-friendly account.

What device do I need?

Just a smartphone or tablet. The reader connects over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi and comes pre-programmed, so you can be taking payments within minutes of setting up.

Will my account get flagged for selling at events?

No. We underwrite for firearms from the start, so a busy gun-show weekend won't trigger a hold or shutoff the way a general processor might.

Can I use the same account in my store?

Yes. The same merchant account powers your mobile sales, a countertop terminal, a full POS, and your website — add channels anytime without a second approval.
