- Our countertop card machines are spot on if you only need to serve people from one place, like behind a till or at a reception desk.
- If you prefer to be able to move around to serve people, like at a table, a portable card machine is right up your street.
- If you travel for work and want to be able to take payments on the go, your best option will be a mobile card machine.

Frequently asked questions.
Will I get a card payment machine that accepts contactless?
Yes. As well as accepting credit and debit card payments through chip and PIN, all of our card machines come with contactless technology.
To accept contactless payments, your customer just needs to tap their card against the machine, and it’ll process it.
They can pay for items up to the value of £30.
What’s the difference between a card machine, PDQ machine, credit card machine, card reader and chip and PIN reader?
Nothing at all! They’re all just different names for the same thing.

Which is the right card payments machine for my business?
Don’t worry, we can help you decide.
There are a few different options to choose from, and which one is best for you will depend on your business type.
- Countertop card machines are ideal if you service customers from one fixed point of sale, such as your till or a reception desk.
- Portable card machines are great if you want to serve people around your premises, such as at a table in a restaurant.
- Mobile card machines are spot on if you travel to see your customers. They connect to a GPRS signal through a SIM card, so you can use when out on the road.
Every machine accepts a range of cards, comes with contactless, as well as the latest card payment security features.
