Gearfire Gives Dealers Free RestrIQ State Shipping Checks

Gearfire eCommerce dealers save time and money with restricted items flagged at checkout, before the order is placed

Gearfire, the end-to-end technology provider for firearm and specialty outdoor retailers and ranges, announced it is adding RestrIQ, developed by FastBound with compliance powered by FFLGuard, to Gearfire eCommerce Pro and Essentials. At no cost to dealers, the integration brings state shipping restriction checks into the Gearfire checkout, saving dealers time and money untangling orders that can't ship.

Online orders that turn out to be undeliverable cost dealers time, money, and customer goodwill. With RestrIQ built into Gearfire eCommerce, restricted items are flagged at checkout, before the order is placed, while the customer can still fix it.

"A restricted item that gets past checkout turns into a cancellation, a refund, and a phone call," said Chad Seaverns, COO at Gearfire. "RestrIQ flags it while the customer is still at checkout and can fix it. We made it free for every eCommerce Pro and Essentials dealer because that time belongs back in the store."
