Portable card payments.

Standard countertop PDQ machines are connected to the internet via a cable. This means that your customers will have to pay at a till point. This works well for some businesses, such as shops and supermarkets with checkout aisles.

However, in some settings, customers prefer to be able to pay elsewhere. Restaurants are a good example, where it is normal to present the bill and take payment at the table. Other small businesses that can benefit from portable PDQ machines include hair salons, sports clubs, and hotels.

A portable debit card machine or portable wireless credit card machine uses wireless technology to transmit payment data to your payment service provider, so you can take the device over to the customer for their convenience. It’s perfect for taking payments outside or on a terrace. As long as you stay within range of your Wi-Fi service you can use your portable card machine.

All of our portable payment terminals accept contactless credit and debit card payments from major providers (such as Visa and Mastercard), traditional chip & PIN payments and mobile payment options from Apple, Google and Android.
