Bubble Tea Shops card machine questions
Is it worth it for small orders?
Yes. There is no per-transaction pence charge on top, so a £4.50 tea costs the same percentage as a large order. Small baskets are not penalised.
Can two people take payment at once?
Yes. Add a second terminal for £14 a month and both counter positions take cards under the same account and the same rate.
Does it work in a kiosk?
Yes. The terminal is compact and has 4G built in, so it works in mall kiosks without connecting to centre WiFi.
How quickly can I start?
Most shops are set up within a few working days of approval. The terminal arrives configured, so you plug it in and take your first payment.
Are there early exit fees?
No. The agreement runs eighteen months and there is no early exit fee if you need to close or relocate.
