Accepting card payments in person
An EFTPOS terminal is the most common way to accept card payments in person. You can choose in-store or mobile options.
How does it work?
- Customers tap, swipe or insert their card to make a payment
- Your EFTPOS terminal receives an approval or decline for the transaction
- If approved, you may receive funds into your linked account as soon as the same day – the timeframe will vary according to your merchant provider.
Other considerations
- Some EFTPOS machines can come with added benefits such as apps.
- Consider choosing a provider with 24/7 customer support so you can contact them anytime
- Make sure you understand how much it will cost to get EFTPOS to help decide whether it's worth it.
