Terms of Service

By accessing or using GatSwap, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, you must not use our platform.

GatSwap reserves the right to modify these terms at any time. Continued use of the platform after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. We will notify users of material changes via email or in-app notification.

You must be at least 18 years of age (or 21 in jurisdictions where required) to use GatSwap.

You must not be a prohibited person under federal law (18 U.S.C. 922(g)) or applicable state law.

You must provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and maintain the accuracy of that information.

You must successfully complete our identity verification process before initiating any trades.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.

You must immediately notify GatSwap of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security.

You may not share, transfer, or sell your account to another person.

GatSwap may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, engage in fraudulent activity, or pose a risk to the platform or other users.

GatSwap is a platform that facilitates the legal trade and transfer of firearms between verified users through licensed Federal Firearms License (FFL) dealers.

All firearm transfers must be completed through an FFL dealer in our verified network. GatSwap does not sell, purchase, or take possession of firearms.

Listings must accurately describe the item, including make, model, caliber, condition, and any modifications.

Users are prohibited from listing items that are illegal under federal or applicable state law, including but not limited to unregistered NFA items, stolen firearms, or firearms with obliterated serial numbers.

All transactions facilitated through GatSwap must comply with applicable federal, state, and local laws.

Users must cooperate with the compliance check process, including background checks conducted by FFL dealers.

GatSwap's compliance engine provides guidance but does not constitute legal advice. Users are responsible for ensuring their transactions comply with all applicable laws.

GatSwap may decline to process transactions that our compliance systems flag as potentially non-compliant, even if no law has been violated.

GatSwap FFL dealer subscriptions include a 30-day free trial period. No payment is required to start your trial.

During the free trial period, you have full access to all features included in your selected subscription tier.

At the end of the 30-day trial, your subscription will convert to a paid plan at the applicable monthly rate unless you cancel before the trial ends.

You may cancel your free trial at any time before it expires at no charge. To cancel, contact support at info@gatswap.com or use the cancellation option in your account settings.

GatSwap reserves the right to modify or discontinue the free trial offer at any time with reasonable notice.

FFL dealer subscription plans are billed monthly following the expiration of any applicable free trial period. Current plan pricing is available on the subscription page within the FFL portal.

FFL dealers set their own transfer fees for processing firearms transactions. These fees are displayed on each dealer's profile and at the time of transfer selection. GatSwap is not responsible for FFL dealer fees.

GatSwap reserves the right to change its subscription pricing with 30 days' notice to active subscribers.

Subscriptions may be cancelled at any time. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing cycle; no partial-month refunds are issued for subscription fees.

GatSwap platform fees for facilitating trades are non-refundable once a transaction has been completed, except as required by applicable law.

GatSwap Credits are a digital in-platform currency used to initiate swap proposals and access certain platform features. One GatSwap Credit is required per swap proposal submitted.

GatSwap Credits do not expire. Credits carry over month to month and remain in your account until used.

GatSwap Credits are non-refundable once purchased. Credits have no cash value and cannot be transferred, exchanged, or redeemed for cash.

FFL subscriber plans include a monthly allocation of GatSwap Credits as specified in the plan details. Monthly allocated credits are added to your existing balance and also carry over — they are not forfeited at the end of any period.

GatSwap reserves the right to modify the GatSwap Credits program, including pricing and feature access, with 30 days' notice to users.

GatSwap Credits: All GatSwap Credit purchases are final and non-refundable. Credits do not expire and carry over indefinitely, which we believe represents a fair alternative to refunds.

FFL Subscriptions: Subscription fees are non-refundable. You may cancel at any time and retain full access through the end of your paid billing period.

Free Trial: There is no charge during the free trial period. If you cancel before the trial ends, you will not be billed.

Exceptions: Refunds may be issued at GatSwap's sole discretion in cases of verified billing errors or as required by applicable law. To request a refund review, contact info@gatswap.com within 7 days of the charge in question.

GatSwap is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the platform.

GatSwap is not a party to trades between users and is not liable for the conduct of any user or FFL dealer.

GatSwap's total liability shall not exceed the amount of fees paid by you in the twelve months preceding the claim.

Any disputes between users should first be addressed through GatSwap's dispute resolution process.

Disputes between you and GatSwap shall be resolved through binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association, conducted in Dallas, Texas.
