Compatible site builders, platforms, and shopping carts
A good starting point for deciding whether Authorize.Net is a good choice for you is whether or not it’s compatible with the software you’re planning to or already use. To that end, here’s a quick overview of some of the platforms, site builders, and shopping carts that are compatible with both Authorize.Net and firearms:
- BigCommerce
- Ecwid
- GunBroker
- Magento
- Shopify
- Wix (with a 3rd party cart – call or contact us for details)
- WooCommerce
As you might know, we’re an official reseller of NMI and often find ourselves recommending NMI to various high-risk businesses. However, on the software side of things, it’s notable that Shopify is not accessible with NMI whereas it is compatible with Authorize.Net.
On the other hand, if you’re a ClickFunnels entrepreneur, we always recommend using NMI – as Authorize.Net is not yet compatible with it.

The firearms industry is compatible with Authorize.Net
Naturally, when choosing a payment gateway, it’s crucial to make sure it’s compatible with your business and product type. The good news is that our Authorize.Net accounts are relatively flexible and are compatible with quite a decent range of high-risk niches including online FFL dealers, tactical merchants, and ammunition resellers.
Is Authorize.Net right for your FFL website?
Naturally, it’s impossible to say with any certainty whether Authorize.Net is the right gateway for your business. The devil is in the details, and the nuances and specifics of your business can swing widely from business to business – even within the industry and business model. Consequently, these details will influence what payment gateway is best for you. Generally speaking, though, Authorize.Net is widely compatible and when set up correctly allows nearly all FFL businesses to accept credit cards.
