Free Card Machine for Personal Trainers and Mobile Businesses

15 Dec 2025 · 7 min read

If you train clients in parks, gyms and homes, here's the card machine setup that keeps payments flowing wherever you are.

PTs and mobile-first businesses have unique payment challenges: no fixed location, no business WiFi and clients who pay session-by-session.

What you need

4G connectivity, fast contactless and a machine small enough to live in your gym bag.

Why not just SumUp?

Fine for £100/month in payments. Past that, the 1.69% rate stings, and you lose the tipping prompts and email receipts that look more professional.

Next steps

Apply in 2 minutes, the machine arrives within 48 hours.

Ready for your free machine?

No rental. No catch. Apply in 2 minutes.
