Contactless devices

Chip cards

Insert chip cards into the credit card machine and, if needed, let customers enter their PIN on Terminal.

We make taking payments one less thing to worry about.

Spend less time and money on your payments. We don’t charge you extra fees or lock you into long-term contracts. And we’ve got your back when it comes to data security and managing payment disputes.

Honest, fair pricing with no gotcha fees

There are a lot of fees out there: statement fees, chargeback fees, PCI compliance fees—the list goes on. We don’t charge for any of that. And long-term contracts? None of those, either.

Data security protects you and your customers

Security is engineered into our products from the ground up. We follow industry requirements that keep data safe (instead of passing that responsibility on to you).

We manage payment disputes so you don’t have to

We constantly monitor for suspicious activity and block fraudulent transactions. When payment disputes occur, our team of experts deals with the bank for you, helping you avoid costly chargebacks.
