Delis card machine questions
Can it keep up with a busy lunchtime queue?
Yes, contactless payments clear in seconds, which keeps a queue of sandwich and coffee orders moving quickly.
Does it handle a larger platter order for an office?
Yes, there's no cap on transaction size, so a £40 platter order processes the same as any smaller sale.
What if trade is slower over summer holidays?
It's no use no bill, so a quieter week when regular customers are away doesn't cost you a fixed rental fee.
How soon does Saturday's takings reach our account?
Saturday trade settles on the next working day, so the money is ready for Monday's supplier order.
Can we take the machine to a local market stall too?
Yes, additional terminals are £14 a month, useful for a weekend farmers market pitch alongside the shop.
