The relevant passage is:
"The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) voted in favor of creating a merchant code for firearms stores, according to Reuters.
Merchant codes are four-digit codes that categorize retailers across all industries; until now, gun purchases had been classified under “miscellaneous retail stores” or “sporting goods stores.”
"

I suppose they will use that merchant category code and a dollar amount, and assume a purchase is for firearms.
