Hi All.
Ive not posted on here for ages so i thought id say a quick hello and get your opinion on something
whilst being here. Ive recently come across the new mobile phone / tablet card reader which enables
you to take payment by credit/ debit card. It works by slotting a connection into your phone/tablet of which
the customer can stick their card in and put in their PIN. Its a one off fee of £20ish if youve a smart phone/tablet or free
if youve an I phone/Pad. Its 2.75 % f the fee on every card usage.
I think it sounds like a great idea as no one else in my area has it and could be a great selling point? Plus you get a free mobile website (im not a salesman!!_
What do you guys think????????
Heres the link...its a limited offer so got to think fast!

Thanks all
 
great idea to take payment off customer after completion of job !! they cant really argue with that !! love it
 
I've been looking at something similar from a different company recently. Genuinely think I'll be getting one, so I'll post back here with feedback once I've used it a few times.
 
Looks great, it's bound to take off for so many small traders. And as said before anything that makes it easier for the customer to hand over the money has to be worth getting!
Here's the companies main site https://www.izettle.com/
 
I would not put my PIN number into someone's computer or phone for them to potentially steal..... I don't suppose I would be unique in my mistrust. 2.75% sounds quite high as well. When I used to take credit card payments at my previous occupation we only used to pay 1.5%.
 
I'd hang in there. We're about to get a card firm on board that the plumbers have already beens signing up to. Off the back of that they got in touch. It seems like a decent setup too from what I can tell.
