Key advantages

Accepting card payments gives you access to a much wider customer base, as you'll attract people who prefer to pay by credit, debit or charge card.

Accepting plastic offers you all these benefits

• Potential for increased profits
• Existing customers find it easier to spend more, as they're no longer limited by the amount of cash they have on them or their cheque guarantee limit
• Transactions are authorised instantly - no waiting for cheques to clear
• Improved cash flow - as the money is in your account within 3-4 working days^* (faster than cheque payments)
• Speed at the point of sale, thanks to our electronic PDQ terminals
• Less back office administration - so your staff can spend their time more profitably
• Reduced cash handling for your staff - which means fewer opportunities for costly mistakes or staff dishonesty
