HEALDSBURG, Calif. — PayPal’s “Acceptable Use Policy” prevents electronic transaction of firearms and many firearms accessories, but the GunPal money-transfer service is expanding its services to solve that problem.
Founded in 2004, GunPal is a transaction-neutral online payment system that allows easy transfer of funds to anyone with an email address.
Says Founder/CEO Ben Cannon, “GunPal is the first serious competitor to PayPal.”
The $3 billion firearms and accessories industry has adopted GunPal as the payment platform of choice, Cannon said.
“Firearms can only be sold by licensed dealers. GunPal is more convenient than other forms of payment as its comprehensive transaction tracking system is secure and reliable for our audits,” says Mitchel Chapman of WBtactical.com, a licensed firearms dealer.
Cannon said, “An estimated one hundred million firearm owners nationwide now have a platform with which they can trade ammunition, scopes, and other accessories securely and hassle-free.”
