Existing partners
GunTab is already partnered with all the major gun marketplaces, including GunBroker, as well as many smaller marketplaces and forums. No other payment option in our industry can compare. See our list of integrated marketplaces for more details.
Why have so many marketplaces partnered with us? Because there are no costs beyond the free integration, but extensive benefits.
Partner benefits
It's easy to become a GunTab Integrated Partner, and the benefits are considerable:
- Establish a huge competitive advantage. Gun-related marketplaces are notorious for being unsafe. Everyone is worried about scams, chargebacks, payment platform bans, and accidental legal mistakes. Equip your users with a solution to these worries and you establish a tremendous competitive advantage over marketplaces that don't.
- Encourage more revenue. Offering GunTab as a payment option instantly supercharges buying and selling. Buyers have easy, scam-proof checkouts. Sellers have easy, chargeback-proof payments and the solution to the low feedback dilemma. encouraging more listings, more purchases, and more revenue.
- Share in GunTab's service fee. Earn 10% of our service fee on all eligible transactions, regardless whether your checkout flow was used. Service fee sharing payments are issued per-month, the day after each month ends.
- Collect fees more easily and reliably. If you charge buyer or seller fees, GunTab can collect them for you on every successful transaction. For example, GunTab collects a 1.0% buyer fee for GunBroker. User's can't shirk their fees, and love having an easy way to pay them.
- Offload your fraud risk. Historically, good marketplaces have invested considerable resources in fraud prevention. But fraud doesn't occur until payment, a step that marketplaces aren't involved in. That means marketplaces are investing in a problem they cannot fully solve. Now you can offload your fraud prevention efforts to GunTab. As long as your buyers pay through GunTab, they've got 100% buyer protection. You can simplify your user flows, and reduce unnecessary development and support efforts.
- Request custom features. Need a feature that GunTab doesn't offer yet? Maybe even something custom? GunTab gives special consideration to feature requests from Integrated Partners. We've already built multiple features at the request of a partner, and we welcome new feature requests.
- Get payment intel. Want to know how many of your users are using GunTab, their average transaction amounts, and how much they're paying in total? GunTab provides de-identified/aggregate reporting to help you understand your user payments.
- Stop any time. There is no obligation. You can disable your integration at any time, without penalty, even if GunTab built it for you.

Frequently asked questions
-
What is an eligible transaction?
Transactions eligible for service fee sharing:
- Are associated with your website.
- Were accepted by the buyer since you became an Integrated Partner.
- How are transactions associated with my website? Transactions are associated with your website if the initiating user provides a URL from your website, or explicitly selects your marketplace. GunTab has no other way to identify transactions associated with your website. While this approach can allow false-negatives, it can also allow false-positives. Specifically, GunTab offers service fee sharing on transactions that have a URL from your website even when the users came to GunTab directly, without going through your checkout flow.
- What if a transaction was canceled or refunded? Transactions are not eligible for service fee sharing unless they were successful. GunTab only earns revenue on successful transactions, meaning a transaction must be successful to create revenue to share.
- How is service fee sharing calculated? Service fee sharing is calculated as 10% of service fee (not credit card convenience fee) successfully captured on eligible transactions.
- How often are service fee sharing payments issued? Service fee sharing payments are issued on the 1st of every month, covering all service fee sharing earned the previous month. (Previously, service fee sharing payments were issued immediately when the service fee was earned, but these many individual payments caused bookkeeping to be too complex for our integrated partners.)
- When are reports emailed? Summary reports are issued on the 1st of every month, covering all service fee sharing earned the previous month.
- Is there a binding agreement? Yes, the Integrated Partner program is covered by a section in our GunTab User Agreement.
- Is there any obligation? No, Integrated Partners have no obligation to continue. You can terminate your Integrated Partner status at any time, for any reason.
