Get paid before you leave the job

Chasing invoices costs time you could spend working. A card machine in the van and a payment link for deposits mean most jobs are paid for on the day.

What matters most

  • A mobile machine with its own SIM, working anywhere with a signal
  • Payment links for deposits and staged payments
  • A tough, compact device that lives in the van
  • Tap to Pay on your phone as a backup
  • Quick payouts to keep materials paid for

What I usually set up

A mobile card machine for on-site payments and pay by link for deposits. myPOS suits trades that want money within seconds.

In most cases your first card machine is free. I set it up at your premises and stay your contact afterwards.

Builders' merchants and trade counters have different needs. They're closer to retail.

HOW IT WORKS

Three steps. I do the paperwork.

  1. Send your statement.

    Upload it or snap a photo. It takes two minutes.

  2. I compare the market.

    I check your rates against my partner providers and show you the difference in plain English.

  3. I handle the switch.

    If you want to move, I deal with the paperwork and the notice to your old provider, with no downtime.
