Phoenix, March 3, 2015 -- McMillan Merchant Solutions (MMS), a subsidiary of McMillan Group International, announced today the partnership with gun-friendly payment processing company Delta Payment Systems, LLC. “MMS pioneered the idea of providing gun-friendly payment processing solutions that were created by the firearms industry, for the firearms industry. Today we’re expanding our service offering and welcoming on additional leadership that will help take what we’ve started to the next level,” said Kelly McMillan, Managing Partner of McMillan Group International.

In the wake of the DOJ’s Operation Choke Point, Kelly McMillan started MMS to give the firearms industry a true gun-friendly credit card processing solution. Through a partnership with Merchant Services Ltd (MSL), Kelly created a one stop shop for firearms-related merchants seeking gun-friendly payment processing services. The MMS offering has become a preferred alternative to traditional providers who only offer limited terms and reduced availability.

Nathan Danus, former EVP of McMillan Merchant Solutions will continue this important work for the shooting sports industry and oversee the many customers we proudly serve. As a result of this partnership, the two companies will offer the latest EMV certified and PCI compliant payment solutions to firearm-related businesses nationwide. “This partnership will add value to our existing customer base and create new opportunities for prospective clients,” explains Danus. “As a result of Operation Choke Point we’ve seen far too many banking and payment processing decisions be influenced by big government and the views of a select few politicians. Legally operated businesses that choose to make a living in the shooting sports industry should be afforded the same banking and payment processing services as any other legitimate business.”

While MSL (MerchantServicesLTD.com ) will handle any questions about existing merchant accounts, Danus and his team will continue to grow the business and offer the same cost-effective payment processing solutions our customers have come to expect. In keeping with Kelly’s vision - Delta Payment Systems will continue to specialize in the shooting sports vertical market and will look to expand the footprint of the company while offering payment processing services unique to the industry.
