I never knew this, but apparently PayPal says you are not allowed to use PayPal to send or receive payments for firearms, firearm parts or accessories, ammunition, weapons or knives.
I'm an FFL and up until today have been using PayPal to compelte 95%+ of my transactions. Then I got this email from PayPal today...
"The PayPal User Agreement states that PayPal, at its sole discretion, reserves the right to limit an account for any violation of the User Agreement, including the Acceptable Use Policy. Under the Acceptable Use Policy, PayPal may not be used to send or receive payments for firearms, firearm parts or accessories, ammunition, weapons or knives.
We are hereby notifying you that it has been determined that you are in violation of PayPal's Acceptable Use Policy regarding your sale of firearms. Therefore, your account has been permanently limited.
You will need to remove all references to PayPal from your website(s) and/or auction(s). This includes not only removing PayPal as a payment option, but also the PayPal logo and/or shopping cart. We thank you in advance for your cooperation. If you have any questions, please contact the PayPal Acceptable Use Policy Department at [email protected]."
Does anyone have any recommendations for other good venues to send and receive money? I liked the fact that PayPal protected both the buyer and the seller in the transaction.
