Stop Funding Your Opposition: Why Like-Minded Business Matters

By Thomas Troyer, CEO – 2nd Amendment Processing

In a world where corporations use your dollars to push values that oppose your own, we need to stop pretending business is neutral. It’s not.

Every transaction you make — every vendor you use — is a vote. You're either supporting your values... or you're unknowingly funding the people working against them.

At 2nd Amendment Processing, we believe your values shouldn’t be something you compromise just to run a business. You shouldn’t have to “just deal with it” when your credit card processor donates to causes that disarm law-abiding citizens, silence speech, or undermine faith, family, and freedom.

The Hidden War in Your Vendor List

You spend thousands — maybe millions — every year across various services:

• Merchant processing

• Web hosting

• Payroll and HR

• Marketing tools

• Inventory platforms

But have you ever looked at where those companies stand?

Too many businesses are unknowingly doing business with:

• Payment processors that deplatform gun shops

• Banks that freeze accounts over political beliefs

• Tech companies that silence free speech

It’s time to wake up. You’re feeding the beast.

Align Your Vendors with Your Values

You don’t just need a vendor — you need a partner who believes in what you believe in:

• America-first values

• 2A support

• Free enterprise without political strings

• Faith, family, and personal responsibility

When you partner with companies that align with your mission, you’re building something bigger than a bottom line. You’re creating a parallel economy that keeps freedom alive — and your money out of enemy hands.

What We Stand For at 2nd Amendment Processing

We were built for this moment.

As the original conservative, veteran-owned merchant processor, we proudly serve businesses that are pro-freedom, pro-family, and pro-Constitution.

We don’t censor.We don’t cancel.We don’t hide where we stand.

Instead, we equip thousands of like-minded businesses — gun shops, cigar lounges, patriotic brands, nonprofits, and more — with secure, transparent, reliable payment processing that they can count on without compromise.

The Takeaway: Vote with Your Wallet

Every dollar is a decision and every decision either strengthens or weakens the future you want to see.

So here’s the challenge: audit your vendors. Ask yourself: Do they share my values, or are they using my money to fight against them?

If the answer is the latter, it’s time to walk away.

Because freedom isn’t just defended on a battlefield —It’s defended in boardrooms, invoices, and every swipe of a card.

At 2nd Amendment Processing, we’re proud to stand with you every step of the way.
