Countertop card machines
Do you need to take payments from behind a till, counter or reception point? If so, a countertop card machine could be right for your business.
From convenience stores to retail shops, and everything in between, our countertop card machines are a quick and convenient way for your customers to pay.
The terminal plugs directly into your broadband or phone line, and it comes with all the latest technology so that you can take secure card payments.
Plus, our countertop card machines for small business come equipped with contactless payments so your customers can tap and go.
Portable card machines
If you work in a busy business, you don’t want to be stuck behind your till all day. You want to be out on the shop floor with your customers. And with a portable card machine, you can be.
Using wireless Bluetooth technology, you can take payments at the table, or along the bar, without any wires getting in the way, speeding things up.
As with all of our terminals, you'll be able to take contactless payments, Google and Android payments, as well as all major credit and debit cards.
Mobile card machines
Are you a mobile hairdresser, taxi driver, window cleaner, plumber, or, in fact, anyone who travels to see their customers?
A mobile card machine lets you take payments from customers there and then, face to face. It uses 4G to connect to the strongest GPRS signal available through a SIM card, just like your mobile phone does. That means that you can accept credit and debit cards anytime, anywhere in the UK where there is phone signal.
Mobile card machines for small businesses are also perfect for hospitality businesses serving customers outside, whether that's in your garden or allocated seating area on the pavement.
