I have seen these apps that take a credit card payment from customers on site, using your mobile and their credit card to settle bills. Does anybody know which is the best for doing these sales whilst on the go? The banks charge a Mint for this type of service!

I have the PayPal V.2 Chip and pin, contactless, swipe and manual transactions so you could take payment over the phone too if you wanted.

Great little LCD screen for the customer to see while you process on your phone.

Emails and texts receipts direct to customer and also reverses transactions or refunds and again emails and texts customer.

Mobile app is intuitive and you can create parts lists or stick lists of most used bits and pieces so they can be added in a tap or two.

2.75% fee per transaction I tend to swallow this in my pricing as it's worth that for the hassle it saves me.

Money is always there in an instant and I've never had an issue with it.

In my opinion it's well worth the money and have processed about 9k through it now and have never had an issue touch wood!

Customers seem to love it and have actually had a couple of installs of the back of it as I was the only one they could find that took cards and that allowed them to spread the payment. It's paid for itself many times over.

Link to it below if you want to have a look.

Hope that helps.

Hi Jon,
Does the payment have to go into your PayPal account or can it go direct to your bank account?
 
No it goes into your PayPal account but you don't get charged for moving it to your bank account. I tend to leave a lot in paypal anyway as I can use it with most online suppliers so I just see it as an extension of the bank account.

I use the paypal machine too(the older version though) and as aqua heat says you can use the app to process over the phone too, but the fee is higher. Not had a problem either.
You can direct it to any other paypal account too by logging in with the app.
