Are you tired of having a POS system that makes operating your store more difficult and expensive?
Based on what we’ve heard in the industry, finding a POS solution that’s easy to use, highly customizable, fully compliant with current federal state and local laws, and provides a real-time eCommerce website that seamlessly ties in with your POS/inventory is a challenge, which is why we’ve partnered with DefenderPOS.
DefenderPOS: The Ultimate Point of Sale Solution for Gun Stores
In today’s rapidly evolving firearms industry, staying compliant with complex regulations and ensuring smooth payment processing is more challenging than ever. Which is why we partnered with DefenderPOS, who understand the unique needs of gun stores. Their point of sale (POS) system is designed to simplify operations while helping you stay compliant and secure.
Faster Customer Information Acquisition and Transactions:
One of the bigger challenges for firearm retailers is actually being able to sell firearms to their customers. On average, it can take up to 20-30 minutes to complete a transaction per customer. With our platform, we can cut that time down to around 8-10 minutes, significantly reducing the time a customer has to wait to complete their purchase. Some of the ways we do this is by:
- Having a customer-facing QR Code that they can scan with their smartphone. This QR Code directs your customer to a form that allows them to start filling out their information while still waiting in line, significantly reducing the amount of time they have to wait.
- Scanners that allow you to scan driver’s licenses, which allow you to more quickly populate the fields needed to process their order.
- Less than 5 minute support times when issues arise. If there’s a problem during a transaction, just click on the support button and many times, the issue can be resolved in real time, rather than submitting a support ticket, and potentially saving the sale.
- If you participate in gun shows, our platform can be brought along, allowing you to have real-time inventory data and the same tools to expedite the transaction.
- Sales blocking for 8 seconds after a transaction to prevent multiple transactions.
- Direct connection via API to the Merchant Account, allowing your employees the ability to see if a transaction went through or not instead of requiring you, the owner, to check your merchant account to retrieve the transaction information.
Stay Compliant with Ease: Adhering to Firearms Laws Has Never Been Simpler
Running a gun store means adhering to strict federal and state laws that govern firearm transactions, customer identification, and background checks. Navigating these legal complexities can be overwhelming, but DefenderPOS streamlines compliance by:
- Automated 4473 Form Management: Our system automatically integrates ATF Form 4473 through FastBound®, ensuring all customer and firearm transaction details are correctly captured and digitally stored.
- Instant Background Check Integration: Directly connect with NICS (National Instant Criminal Background Check System) through FastBound® for real-time background checks to stay fully compliant.
- Legal Requirement Updates: Keep your business up to date with current legal requirements and regulations, helping you avoid costly fines or penalties, including the loss of your FFL, due to compliance issues.
Stay ahead of the regulatory curve with a system designed to keep your business compliant, so you can focus on serving your customers with peace of mind.
Simplify Payment Processing: Accept Credit Cards Without the Hassle
One of the biggest hurdles for gun stores is finding a reliable credit card processor that aligns with your values and supports the Second Amendment. DefenderPOS partners with trusted payment processors who understand the unique nature of the firearms industry and offer:
- Second Amendment-Friendly Payment Solutions: We’ve curated relationships with a payment provider who specialize in gun store transactions, ensuring you can process payments without worrying about account freezes or terminations.
- Secure and Fast Transactions: Enjoy fast, secure payment processing that supports all major credit cards and digital payments.
