You speak with decision-makers from the start, which keeps the brief clear.

Choose payments around how customers actually pay

When card payments feel clunky, the problem is rarely just the machine on the counter. We start with how your business takes money: transaction volume, where customers pay, how quickly queues need to move and whether staff work from a fixed till, on the shop floor or out on the road. From there, we look at the practical shape of the solution, including fixed counter, portable and mobile arrangements, plus the merchant facilities and processing that sit behind them. With Nexustap, you are not pushed towards one supplier's model if it does not fit the way you trade.

Think about the whole checkout, not one device

A good card setup needs to work as a whole. That means checking connectivity at the point of payment, thinking about how funds settle into your business account and deciding whether the reader should stand alone or sit alongside EPOS for a joined-up checkout. If you already take cards, a recent statement can make the review far more useful because it shows how the arrangement works in real life. A comparison through Nexustap is built around that working picture, so you can judge providers on suitability rather than guesswork.

Frequently asked questions

How do we know if we need mobile or countertop payments?

It depends on where the sale actually finishes. A fixed counter often suits one payment point, portable machines help table or queue service, and mobile readers suit trade away from a till. We compare that everyday use first, then look at provider options.

Does a card payment solution include the merchant setup?

Usually, the wider arrangement matters. The reader is only one part of taking cards. We also look at authorisation, transaction processing and how funds settle, so you can judge the complete setup rather than choosing hardware in isolation.

Can card payments be linked with EPOS?

If you want a smoother checkout, it often makes sense to review them together. Linking payments with EPOS can reduce duplicate keying and make sales records easier to follow. We use your counter layout and workflow to judge whether that approach is worth it.
