Shopify eCommerce for FFL Dealers, Powered by TacStac

FastBound proudly partners with TacStac, a Shopify app built specifically for firearms retailers selling online. Available on Shopify and developed by 20North Marketing, TacStac enables compliant eCommerce by allowing customers to select a licensed FFL dealer at checkout – ensuring every firearm order is routed to an approved dealer and keeping your store aligned with federal and state requirements.

Why This Partnership Matters

Selling firearms online comes with a unique set of compliance responsibilities. Without the right tools in place, every online order creates the risk of an invalid shipment, a compliance gap, or a manual review process that slows your business down.

TacStac solves this at the point of sale. By embedding FFL dealer selection directly into the Shopify checkout experience, customers choose their licensed transfer dealer before the order is placed, not after. That means your store is protected, your customers are guided through the process correctly, and every transaction is documented from the start.

When TacStac is connected to FastBound, your bound book stays in sync with your online sales, reducing manual entry and keeping your A&D records accurate and inspection-ready.
