Small business card payment system -recommendations needed


Capt'n Tortue

Recommended Posts

So I have asked by many of my customers if I have the facility to accept card payments. Today someone told me I can use something call iKettle or Sumup via my tablet or smart phone.


Do any of you local businesses have any experience using these facilities. Is there much difference between the two? Or is there a different option that you would recommend.


I would really appreciate your help on this one. Until now I have only accepted cash or cheque payment and I think adding card payments will really help my business


Thanks for taking the time to read this and I look forward to receiving your advice.


Many thanks,

Adelle

Hi


I personally us PayPal, they have introduced a payment method that you can use on your smart or Iphone to take payments immediatly.


They have the option to buy the card reader for ?99.00, but I do not think this is needed. There is a lot of protection for you and the purchaser.


Have a look and see how you feel. I use the App to take payments and this is immediate, and you get confirmation by email, and text that payment is received.

You seem not to understand the meaning of "national debt".  Have you perhaps been relying on someone else's usage? I'm sorry to hear of Starmer's decimation.

So I've dug out the url to have another try, this time without embedding:  https://x.com/guyshrubsole/status/1858490339356533018 .  Seems ok.   in reply to my own "Where did you get this from?" response to your post at https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/353788-is-rachel-reeves-becoming-the-new-liz-truss/?do=findComment&comment=1688310, in which you again spoke of the government's "doubling the national debt".

The above merging of my posts in response to Sue and to Jazzer have been done by the forum system, so there's no point in my trying again to separate them.  I've already tried editing out the merging and reposting the one to jazzer, but ended up with the same forced merge.  Apologies. Latest edit.  The moral seems to be: don't try making two consecutive posts or they'll be liable to merging.  I've now been able to post a freestanding reply to jazzer's post now that there's an intervening post.
