Accepting card payments

We're a nation of shoppers - and we like the convenience of paying for our goods and services by credit and debit card. So for many businesses, having an efficient and secure way to accept card payments is vital.

Through our partnership with Elavon Merchant Services, you'll be able to handle each transaction quickly, helping you attract more customers. But not just from the UK - with dynamic currency conversion, customers from abroad can pay in their home currency too. And better still, you'll cut down on administration and costs.

Why accept card payments?

  • Increase turnover and profit: If your customers find it easy to pay, they could be more likely to buy! Accepting payment by cards could help increase your sales and profit

  • Security: reduce the need to handle and transport cash

  • Improved cash flow: payment goes straight into your account within three business days, making procedures faster and much more simple

  • Flexibility: card payment processing gives you the ability to handle multiple currencies

  • Peace of mind: chip and PIN gives you added protection against fraud
