Card machines for takeaways

Take card payments at the counter, collection point or an in-person delivery handover. We offer clear rates and a real person in the UK to help you choose.

Card machines for takeaways need to fit around a busy counter, where customers may pay when ordering or collecting food. Our PAX A920 Pro accepts contactless, chip and PIN, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Its touchscreen and built-in receipt printer help you take payment and provide a paper receipt during service.

The portable terminal can move from the counter to a collection point or an in-person delivery handover. It has a 4G SIM installed as standard, as well as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and works anywhere with a mobile signal. Its 5,250mAh battery is built to last all day, so you can use it around your takeaway during a shift.

How our card machine fits your working day

Keep counter payments moving

During a busy meal service, customers may be ordering while others are waiting to collect. Take payment at the counter with the PAX A920 Pro, which accepts contactless, Apple Pay, Google Pay and chip and PIN. Its built-in printer can provide a paper receipt without a separate receipt printer.

Take payment at collection

When an order is ready, bring the portable terminal to the collection point so the customer can pay as they pick up their food. The touchscreen keeps the payment interaction on the device, and the built-in printer can provide a receipt there and then.

Take a terminal to a delivery handover

If a customer pays in person when you hand over a delivery, you can carry the PAX A920 Pro with the order. It has a 4G SIM installed as standard and works anywhere with a mobile signal. Check that the handover location has signal before relying on the terminal there.

Check your EPOS connection

If you use an EPOS system to manage orders, our terminal connects to many EPOS systems. Compatibility can vary, so talk to us about your setup before choosing an option. The PAX A920 Pro also has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for your business connection needs.

Straightforward card payments for takeaways

We were founded by Dave Evans, a small business owner in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire. He ran a post office and village shop, while his wife ran a shop and café. Frustrated by hidden fees and poor service from larger providers, Dave set up our company to offer a more straightforward service. You can speak to a real person in the UK.
