Card machines for newsagents and convenience stores

Take card payments for everyday shop purchases with a portable terminal. Choose to buy, mix or rent, with the same transaction rates whichever option you select.

Card machines for newsagents need to keep pace with a steady stream of small, everyday purchases. From the morning paper and a coffee to a basket of groceries, customers can pay at the counter using contactless, chip and PIN, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Our portable PAX A920 Pro has a touchscreen and built-in receipt printer.

Use the installed 4G SIM, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth to connect, and take the terminal around the shop when needed. Its all-day 5,250mAh battery supports a full day’s trading, and it connects to many EPOS systems. We charge 0.40% on debit and 0.80% on credit, with free next-working-day settlement.

How our card machine fits your working day

Keep the morning queue moving

The morning rush can bring a run of quick sales, from newspapers and drinks to snacks for the journey. Our terminal accepts contactless, chip and PIN, Apple Pay and Google Pay, so customers can choose how to pay while you serve the next person.

Take payment away from the counter

When a customer has a full basket or needs help choosing, you can take payment away from the till rather than send them back to queue. The portable terminal lets you complete the sale in the shop and keep the counter available for other customers.

Print a receipt when someone asks

A customer may need a receipt for a work purchase or simply want one for their records. The PAX A920 Pro has a built-in receipt printer, so you can print a copy at the counter without setting up a separate printer.

Get a replacement if your terminal fails

A card machine fault can make it harder to serve customers during a busy trading day. Report the problem to us before 4pm and we’ll arrange a free next-day replacement, helping you get another terminal in place as soon as possible.

A card machine provider that understands small shops

We are a small card payment company based in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire. Dave Evans founded us after running a post office and village shop, while his wife ran a shop and café. Hidden fees and poor service from larger providers frustrated him, so he built a business where you can speak to a real person in the UK.

Once your application is approved, we deliver your terminal the next day. If it develops a fault, report it before 4pm and we arrange a free next-day replacement. You can also send us a recent card statement. We’ll show you what you would pay based on your statement.
