"Pay with GunTab" buttons/links
If you post listings somewhere online that doesn't have a GunTab integration, you can add your own "Pay with GunTab" buttons or links.
Do NOT use this feature on the following marketplaces. Instead, use their built-in GunTab integration:
- Armslist
- BuySellAmmo
- GunBroker
- Gun Owners Club
- Gunloaded
- GunsAmerica
- Guns Classifieds Network
- GunsInternational
- Liberty Gun Trader
What are "Pay with GunTab" buttons/links?
Sellers simply copy-paste a unique HTML snippet into their listing, and buyers will see a "Pay with GunTab" button or link in the listing, like this one:
These lead to our "Pay with GunTab" page that explains how buyers can pay.
Why are they useful?
Buyers want to know how they can pay you safely and easily, completely online, without exposing their payment information to you. These "Pay with GunTab" buttons/links help buyers understand exactly how to do that.
Who should use them?
You should use "Pay with GunTab" buttons/links if you are posting listings on:
- A marketplace with no GunTab integration (like Tacswap or Texas Gun Trader).
- Your own website with no way to use our WooCommerce plugin or REST API.
How do I add them to my listings?
There are two ways to add "Pay with GunTab" buttons/links to your listings:
- If you do not control the website, you should copy-paste an HTML snippet into each listing.
- If you control the website, you should integrate by generating HTML buttons on each listing where it's applicable.
Copy-paste an HTML snippet
To add "Pay with GunTab" buttons/links to your marketplace listing, copy-paste one of your HTML snippets below into your listing's item description.
1. Copy your HTML snippet below
First, please sign in
to view your HTML snippets.
In the "Marketplace" column below, find the marketplace you are using.
In that marketplace row, click the
button to copy your HTML snippet (it's on the right side).
2. Paste your HTML snippet into your listing
Go to your marketplace listing. Click to edit the "item description" (or equivalent). Click at the end of the text (or wherever you want the HTML snippet to appear). Paste your HTML snippet, save, then review how your listing looks to the public.

Integrate by generating HTML buttons
If you control your website, you should generate your own HTML buttons. It's easy, and GunTab can do the software development for you. You can even be eligible for service fee sharing. To generate your own HTML buttons, you simply add the Checkout UUID and the listing page URL to this template:
What is the LISTING_PAGE_URL?
Determining the listing page URL is easy.
For example, in Javascript you use window.location.href,
or in Ruby on Rails you use request.original_url.
Frequently asked questions
-
What if the Button is not displaying correctly on my listing?
First, confirm you copy-pasted exactly what is displayed above. Marketplaces are sensitive about third-party links, and will strip them from your item description if you use an incorrect format.
If you're confident you copy-pasted correctly, try the next snippet down instead (meaning the Link, URL, or Formatted URL). Each snippet is simpler than the one above. The simpler the snippet, the more likely it is to be displayed correctly. -
How can I test a Button/Link/URL to make sure it is working?
Simply click on it in the live version of your listing. If it takes you to a GunTab page, it's working. -
What do Buyers see if they click a Button/Link/URL?
