There is no information available on the Rapid Gun Systems website that indicates a cost for payment processing services. However, since this company is primarily a reseller for POS systems, and not payment processing, it is important to look at those costs.
NCR Counterpoint and Rapid POS both charge $1,200 for the software that is required for each POS system station. Hardware is priced separately, and the cost can vary based upon what each merchant needs.
It is reasonable to assume that Rapid Gun Systems may charge a little more than $1,200 because of the need to make the software gun-friendly for high-risk merchants.
