Built by a FFL, for FFL’s. This plugin will add a FFL search & selection widget to your checkout page for products requiring FFL Shipment.
FFL Checkout was originally built to meet the operational needs of my own FFL business. Over time, it has grown into the most complete FFL Checkout solution for WooCommerce — refined through input from hundreds of licensed dealers. The plugin empowers FFLs to stay compliant by capturing required information, enforcing shipping restrictions, and guiding customers through the purchasing process for firearms and ammunition. See the plugin in-action on garidium.com, and make sure to look at the FAQ section. Thank You, Gary (FFL Cockpit/Checkout Founder)
