Default Gunpal - A firearm friendly alternative to Paypal

From LF...

GunPal went live tonight and I've just signed up.

It's billed as the Pro-2A competitor to PayPal, no more "discrete" payments to hide the fact that you're buying something perfectly legal, but firearms related.

GunPal is owned by Ben Cannon, a long-time gun rights champion here in the PRK and is in fact the sole person responsible for us being able to own AR and AK style rifles in California.

Hmm, interesting for sure. About time too, another has stepped up to the plate.

As with anything new and dealing with finances, I still want to know if it's reliable & secure.

I got signed up and received my confirm email. I haven't done the accounts yet though.

If I read their terms correctly, you are limited to sending and receiving $500 (each) per calendar month?

So, I sell a rifle to Bob for $400.00, and a shotgun to Jeff for $200.00... Does this mean that I can only get $500 of the $600 through Gunpal? Do I have to make other arrangements with one or the other to complete the second transaction.

Then, I take the money I got from those sales and outfit myself for cowboy action shooting. I can only send the seller of the guns I found the first $500.00 (of what will probably be a much larger total) through the service?

Did I read that wrong? Those totals are listed as available after having a verified account and/or a credit card.

If I read it wrong, would someone please set me straight?
If not, do the limits seem low to anyone else? These gun things get expensive quick.

That's what I was trying to figure out as well.

I *thought* it to mean that until being verified you had those limits but they'd be removed after verification. But then it said the same thing about after verification. So...yes, clarification is needed!
