Frequently asked questions
How do I get card machine quotes?
Enter your postcode, business type and rough monthly card turnover in the form above. A UK-based payments specialist compares providers on your true effective cost and calls you back with the options — usually the same working day.
Why not just compare the headline rates myself?
Because the headline rate is rarely what you pay. Interchange, scheme fees, terminal rental, PCI compliance charges, minimum monthly service charges and authorisation fees all sit underneath it. We compare the total cost of taking your card mix, not the number in the advert.
Do I need to buy a new card machine?
Usually a new provider supplies the terminal as part of the deal — countertop, portable or mobile depending on how you trade. Watch out for terminal leases with separate lease companies on your current contract; the specialist will check for that before you commit to anything.
Who is behind this service?
This site is operated by a UK-based business utilities broker registered in England and Wales (the operating company and registration number are shown in the footer). Real UK-based specialists handle every enquiry — see our disclosure page for exactly how we are paid.
How is the service free — what is the catch?
There is no charge to your business at any point. If you decide to switch through us, the supplier or provider pays us a commission. If you decide not to switch, you owe nothing and we part as friends. Our commission disclosure page explains this in full.
What happens after I submit the form?
A UK-based specialist reviews your details and calls you back, usually the same working day. They will confirm a few details, compare the market for your usage, and talk you through the options. You are never obliged to accept any quote.
