Company Origin

Powered by Macon LiveScan. Built for true independence.

EFT File Direct was created by the certified technicians at Macon LiveScan Services to solve a persistent frustration in federal eFiling: proprietary systems, expensive single-use kiosks, and recurring subscriptions.

We believed individuals, firearms dealers, and security professionals deserved an open, secure, and straightforward solution. Our service supports customers nationwide regardless of state—you get fingerprinted locally using standard FD-258 cards, mail them directly to our lab, and receive an encrypted, reusable, ATF-compliant EFT file for a flat $99 fee. No hidden upsells, no hardware lock-in, and complete ownership of your digital records.
