Greengrocers card machine questions
Are small card sales worth taking?
Yes. There is no fixed pence charge per transaction, so a £3 sale costs a few pence in fees rather than a flat charge that wipes out the margin.
Does it work on a market stall?
Yes. The terminal has 4G built in and a battery that lasts a full trading day, so it works on an outdoor pitch with no power or WiFi.
Can I use it for delivery rounds?
Yes. The same handheld takes payment at the door, so box scheme customers can pay on delivery rather than in advance.
Is there a minimum monthly charge?
No. There is no rental, no minimum and no PCI fee, so a quiet week costs you only the rate on what you take.
How long until it arrives?
Usually a few working days after approval. It arrives configured, so you switch it on and take your first payment.
