Small business card payment system -recommendations needed

[Capt'n Tortue]

So I have asked by many of my customers if I have the facility to accept card payments. Today someone told me I can use something call iKettle or Sumup via my tablet or smart phone.

Do any of you local businesses have any experience using these facilities. Is there much difference between the two? Or is there a different option that you would recommend.

I would really appreciate your help on this one. Until now I have only accepted cash or cheque payment and I think adding card payments will really help my business

Thanks for taking the time to read this and I look forward to receiving your advice.

Many thanks,

Adelle

Hi

I personally us PayPal, they have introduced a payment method that you can use on your smart or Iphone to take payments immediatly.

They have the option to buy the card reader for ?99.00, but I do not think this is needed. There is a lot of protection for you and the purchaser.

Have a look and see how you feel. I use the App to take payments and this is immediate, and you get confirmation by email, and text that payment is received.
