Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Intuit blocking credit card processing for gun companies?

Intuit claims it's due to regulations from their banking partners. However, this action is seen by many in the firearms industry as a form of financial discrimination, potentially influenced by anti-gun advocacy groups, impacting businesses that sell firearms and related merchandise.

What happened to Honor Defense with Stripe and Intuit?

Honor Defense, a firearms manufacturer, had their credit card processing shut down by both Stripe and Intuit. They were informed that these decisions stemmed from their banking partners, preventing them from accepting payments even for non-firearm merchandise like t-shirts.

What are the consequences of Intuit reversing credit card transactions for gun sales?

When Intuit reverses a transaction after a product has been delivered, the customer effectively receives the product for free while the seller loses both the product and the payment. This practice is viewed by some as theft and a significant financial risk to businesses.

What legal recourse do firearms businesses have against financial discrimination?

Businesses are exploring options like federal congressional inquiry and leveraging state laws such as Georgia's Firearms Industry Non-Discrimination Act. Organizing constituent pressure on legislators and Attorney General offices is also a key strategy to combat these financial restrictions.
