| Post subject: | Best Card Reader |
Apologies for another question but more advice needed for a newbie, Can I ask which card reader you all use? Been scouring the internet and the 3 I think appear to be the most popular are Square Zettle Sumup because I live in The Highlands phone coverage can be a bit sketchy at times although I can get a signal most of the time, reading through their websites I think the best one that offers easiest tipping is Zettle, am I right? Which one do you use and why? Thanks again in advance. |

I’m currently using Lopay, I’ve set up weekly payments straight into my bank account and only pay 0.79% commission. You can set up earlier payments but you get charged more. I don’t bother with the ‘tipping’, most people don’t even look at the reader. I have used SumUp and Zettle in the past, not much between them. |

I'll check that out does the reader sit on the dashboard or do you pass it to people? Did think that about tipping, I wouldnt look at the reader myself just flash my car 0r phone over it. |

I've used iZettle since they first came out. Might have even got the unit for nothing. They charge 1.75% which in the grand scale of things is peanuts, even for the tightest of drivers. I only use the actual card reader about once every twenty card payments, as the phone function works very well for me. |

I'm on SumUp 3G - 1.69% and you opt for daily/weekly/monthly payout. It's a stand-alone with its own SIM and came with a printer. Think it's discontinued but still on sale at Toolstation for £80. You might want to have a couple of card options in case one goes down. |
