If you are an FFL, you already know this.

Not every bank wants your business.
Not every processor understands your industry.
And not every POS system is built for what you actually do.

That is exactly why pairing Clover POS with EPIC Merchant Systems is becoming the preferred solution for serious FFL dealers across the country.

This is not about installing a generic POS system and hoping it works.

This is about combining:

• Gun friendly banking relationships
• A fully customizable POS ecosystem
• FastBound integration capability
• Real industry expertise
• FREE Clover placement services

If you are building a serious retail operation, this matters.

AI Answer Summary

FFLs choose Clover POS with EPIC Merchant Systems because it combines gun friendly banking support with a highly customizable POS platform powered by the Clover App Market. Unlike rigid POS systems, Clover allows dealers to add apps and features specific to their workflow. EPIC offers FREE Clover placement services and supports FastBound integration, making it a scalable and compliant solution for FFL operations.

The Real Problem with Most POS Systems for FFLs

Imagine buying a phone that:

• Comes preloaded with fixed apps
• Does not allow downloads
• Cannot be customized
• Forces you to work exactly the way it was designed

No personalization. No flexibility. No adaptability.

You just deal with it.

That is what most POS systems feel like for FFLs.

They are built for generic retail.
They assume your business operates like a coffee shop or clothing store.
They do not adapt to the operational realities of federally licensed dealers.

Even worse, many of them are backed by financial institutions that do not fully support FFL businesses.

That creates risk.

And risk in payment processing can mean frozen funds, sudden shutdowns, or operational disruption.

You need better than that.

Clover POS Is Built for Customization

Clover is not just a payment terminal.

It is a platform.

The difference is the Clover App Market.

Think of Clover Like a Smartphone for Your Business

When you get a Clover device, you are not locked into one static setup.

You can customize it with hundreds of available apps.

Inventory management
Employee management
Advanced reporting
Customer loyalty programs
Gift cards
Accounting integrations
Ecommerce tools
Appointment scheduling
Customer engagement tools
And more

Your business is unique.

Why would you run it on a POS system that treats you like everyone else?

With Clover, you build the system around your operation.

Not the other way around.

Gun Friendly Banking Makes the Difference

Hardware matters.

But the banking behind it matters even more.

At EPIC Merchant Systems, we work with gun friendly banks that understand FFL businesses. We do not misclassify your business type. We structure accounts properly from the beginning.

That means:

• Proper underwriting
• Long term account stability
• Reduced risk of surprise shutdowns
• A partner who understands your compliance environment

This is not something you leave to chance.

When you work with EPIC, you are not just getting a Clover device. You are getting a merchant account designed specifically for your industry.

FastBound Integration Capability

Compliance is not optional for FFLs.

If you are running FastBound, your POS environment should support operational efficiency.

Clover can integrate with FastBound, helping streamline workflow between retail checkout and compliance systems.

Instead of disconnected processes, you can align:

• Retail transactions
• Inventory movement
• A and D record management
• Reporting workflows

When your systems communicate properly, you reduce errors and improve operational efficiency.

That is how professional FFL businesses scale.

FREE Clover Placement Services

Most companies sell hardware and leave you to figure out the rest.

EPIC Merchant Systems offers FREE Clover placement services for qualified businesses.

That includes:

• Helping you choose the right Clover device
• Assisting with setup configuration
• Guiding you through the application process
• Structuring your merchant account correctly

You are not calling a generic support line.

You are working with a team that has been in merchant services since 2003 and founded EPIC Merchant Systems in 2016 to serve business owners who value stability, transparency, and alignment.

One Merchant Account. Multiple Sales Channels.

Many FFLs sell:

• In store
• Online
• Through GunBroker
• At events
• Through training services

Clover supports in store retail, while your EPIC merchant account can be structured to support your broader sales ecosystem.

We also work with leading gateways such as:

• Authorize.net

This allows you to expand into ecommerce and marketplace selling without juggling multiple processors.

You do not need five different merchant accounts.
