Process
How the comparison works
A clear, three-step process with no cold calling and no obligation to change anything — whether you already take card payments or are setting up for the first time.
1. Tell us how you take payments
Complete the short enquiry form with your name, business and contact details. If you already take card payments, add your current provider and, if you can, a recent merchant statement so we can complete the comparison straight away. If you're a new business with no terminal yet, just tell us how you plan to trade and roughly what you expect to turn over.
2. We compare multiple providers
We review the whole fee structure — transaction rates, authorisation fees, rental, service charges and settlement times — and compare options from multiple providers suited to how you actually trade, against your current costs or your expected volume.
3. You get a written recommendation
You receive a clear written summary: your current or expected costs, the alternative and the difference. If a change or a particular setup makes sense we will explain why, arrange it and stay available afterwards. If it does not, we will say so plainly.
Timings and cost
Most comparisons are returned within one working day of receiving your figures. The service is free to you. If you proceed with a provider we introduce, we may receive a commission from that provider — see our terms of use.
