Credit Card Processing for Hunting Equipment

The hunting and outdoor equipment market is significant, with over 101.6 million Americans engaging in such activities, according to the 2016 National Survey of Fishing, Hunting, and Wildlife-Associated Recreation. For business owners in this industry, moving sales online is essential to remain competitive. However, the process can be complex without the proper merchant account, as this sector is often considered high-risk by standard payment processors like PayPal and Square due to the high volume of transactions and the nature of the products sold.

To effectively manage your business and expand your online presence, it’s crucial to secure a merchant account tailored for high-risk industries. Such an account enables smoother transaction processing and ensures compliance with specific regulations, allowing you to navigate the challenges of selling hunting and outdoor equipment online successfully.

Why Obtaining an Outdoor Equipment Payment Gateway is Risky

Credit card processing for hunting and outdoor equipment companies remains a challenge. Although selling outdoor equipment or hunting accessories isn’t illegal, payment processors often hesitate to associate with the sale of guns or other weapons due to reputational risks. For instance, if an individual linked to a crime had purchased their equipment through such a platform, it could jeopardize the payment processor’s reputation. Moreover, the hunting and outdoor equipment industries are known for high chargeback rates, typically exceeding the 3% threshold that standard payment processors are comfortable with.

Starting an Online Hunting Drop shipping Business

To launch an online hunting drop shipping business, begin by researching and selecting drop shipping providers that specialize in the outdoor and hunting markets. Once a reliable drop shipping partner is secured, you can set up your ecommerce platform with a reputable web host and a domain name of your choice. After setting up your website and stocking it with inventory, the next crucial step is driving traffic to generate sales. It’s essential to establish a hunting merchant account specifically designed for high-risk industries before you start selling to minimize potential risks.

Choosing Between Standard and Specialized Hunting Merchant Services

While mainstream processors like PayPal, Square, or Stripe may seem appealing due to their popularity, they pose significant risks for businesses within the hunting industry. Such industries are considered high risk, and accounts may be flagged, deleted, or banned without prior notice. Even if an account is initially approved, there’s no guarantee of long-term stability, and businesses often face account termination as they scale.

Opting for a merchant account tailored for high-risk industries, such as hunting and outdoor equipment, is advisable to avoid interruptions in your ability to generate sales. High-risk merchant accounts are designed to offer more robust protection for businesses that deal with elevated risk factors. These accounts are also more likely to provide dedicated support, which is often lacking from standard payment processors for high-risk industries.

Obtaining Your Merchant Account for Outdoor Equipment

Securing a merchant account for selling hunting gear and outdoor equipment involves several key steps:

  • Personal Details: You’ll need to provide personal information such as your legal name, address, and Social Security Number (SSN).
  • Financial Details: The processor will require your bank account and routing numbers, along with your business banking information.
  • Established Presence: Demonstrating that your business is legitimate may expedite your application’s approval. This could involve providing details of your company’s official website and social media presence.

By partnering with a payment processor that specializes in high-risk industries, you can confidently sell a wide range of products, from firearms to outdoor survival gear, knowing your business operations are secure and supported.
