Pricing

What does the fee pay for?

The service fee pays for many benefits that are not available for guns and ammo anywhere else online, including:

• Safe, easy payment by credit card or bank account.
• Full purchase protection for both buyer and seller.
• Step-by-step guidance for regulated transactions.
• Helpful automations like FFL search and shipment updates.
• Automatic disbursement to the seller's bank account.

Who pays the fee?

GunTab is escrow, so you decide who pays the service fee:

• Buyer
• Seller
• 50/50 split

For example, with a 50/50 split, a verified FFL pays only 1.25%.

Is the fee paid on canceled transactions?

No, the service fee only applies to successful transactions. Unlike the alternatives, our success depends on your success. If a transaction is canceled, or successfully disputed, we charge no service fee.

How is the fee calculated?

The service fee applies to the purchase price alone, not the shipping cost or sales tax. For example, the service fee is $29 when the purchase price is $1,000. Any payment method convenience fee will be collected separately.

Is the fee competitive?

No other purchase protection has a lower service fee:

• GunTab: 2.5% - 2.9%
• Escrow.com: 3.25%   (compare to GunTab)
• PayPal: 3.49% +   (compare to GunTab)

Purchase protection is not generally available from Zelle, Venmo, etc.

It's not fair to compare

It's not fair to compare GunTab to the alternatives. Nothing else can come close.

Nothing else protects gun-related transactions. (In fact, payment platforms like PayPal actually increase your risk of bans and scams.) Nothing else guides you through regulated transactions. Nothing else sends shipment delivery notifications to your phone. You can't beat GunTab at any price.
