Whether you're running a restaurant, managing a hotel, serving at a festival, or cutting hair in a mobile salon, having the right card terminal can make or break your business flow. But with all the jargon around PCI compliance, platform fees, and authorisation charges, it can get confusing fast.
Let’s break it down—and show you how we make payments simpler, more affordable, and flexible.
What Is PCI Compliance?
PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) compliance is a set of security standards for businesses that handle credit card information. Many providers charge a monthly fee just to stay PCI compliant. With us? You won’t pay PCI compliance fees. Our terminals come ready-to-go, securely configured, and hassle-free.
Platform Fees & Authorisation Fees Explained
Platform Fees: These are monthly or annual charges that some providers tack on just for using their payment system. We don’t charge them.
Authorisation Fees (Auth Fees): These are small fees charged per card transaction, often hidden in the fine print. We keep our pricing clear and competitive, so you always know what you're paying.
We Work With All Major Card Providers
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover, contactless, Apple Pay, Google Pay—you name it. Our terminals accept them all, so your customers can pay however they like.
