This Addendum's special provisions form part of the Agreement. ### Compliance requirements The Merchant must comply with all state and federal laws, rules, and regulations. These requirements apply to in-person and remote sales of age-restricted products. **Products** include weapons, firearms, firearm accessories, ammunition, and related items. #### Federal Firearms License requirements If the Merchant lacks a valid, current Federal Firearms License (FFL), the Merchant must not process transactions requiring an FFL. This applies unless Xplor Pay approved the Merchant to process those transactions under the Agreement. This restriction applies to in-person and remote sales. The Merchant must not process the following products with Xplor Pay without a valid, current FFL: * Unserialized lower receivers * Eighty-percent completed lower receivers * Computerized Numeric Control (CNC) machines * Drill bits or jigs used to build a firearm * Antique or replica firearms, including powder-based ammunition and muskets Xplor Pay may add prohibited products at its sole discretion. #### In-person transaction verification Before completing an in-person card transaction for Products, the Merchant must verify the customer's name and age. The Merchant must review valid, government-issued identification. The identification must display the customer's photograph, name, address, and date of birth. The Merchant must also verify that the identification name matches the name on the presented credit card. #### Remote transaction delivery For remote card transactions involving Products, the Merchant must deliver only to an address that complies with state and federal requirements. At delivery, the Merchant must require: * The cardholder's signature * Valid, government-issued photo identification * Identification with the same name and address as the cardholder The Merchant must use these steps to verify the recipient's legal age. ### Liability and enforcement The Merchant remains liable for all submitted card transactions under the Agreement and this Addendum. Xplor Pay and its sponsor bank may refuse a transaction. They may do so when they reasonably believe it violates this Addendum. The Merchant confirms awareness of ATF Final Rule 2021R-05F, *Definition of “Frame or Receiver” and Identification of Firearms*. This rule supports proper marking, recordkeeping, and traceability for firearms. The Merchant must understand its compliance responsibilities under this rule. Noncompliance may violate the merchant agreement. It may result in account termination and significant Card Brand fines. ### Recertification and execution The Merchant must recertify this Addendum annually. Xplor Pay may also request recertification. Failure to recertify results in a non-recertification fee. The parties execute this Addendum through their authorized representatives on the stated date.
