takepayments · Provider partner
takepayments offers card machines and additional payment tools designed to help businesses accept payments in person and through supported remote-payment channels. Its takepaymentsplus range adds smart-terminal features that can help merchants manage products and review sales information alongside payment acceptance.
Overview
takepayments supplies card machines and quotes for them individually. Its takepaymentsplus range adds smart features — product lists, live reporting and a management portal — on top of payment acceptance.
An important point: transaction processing runs through a separate agreement with the acquiring bank nominated by takepayments. The terminal and the processing agreement are two different things, each with its own terms.
Compared with our other partners, takepaymentsplus sits in the middle ground: more than a basic card machine, without being a full EPOS system.

Full EPOS

The full cost
takepayments directs merchants to request a quote. You'll also enter into and maintain a separate agreement with the acquiring bank it nominates, where transaction charges and other fees apply. The terminal alone doesn't determine your full processing cost.
Preferential pricing
We work with established payment providers to help businesses explore competitive, partner-negotiated rates that may not be available through standard public offers. We compare suitable options against your business needs, helping you understand the available terms before you decide whether to switch.
Eligibility depends on your business and the provider's terms. We can't guarantee a specific rate or that every quote will beat a direct offer.

Access to funds
takepayments states that next-day settlement can be available, subject to the acquiring arrangement and conditions — including completing the terminal's banking-window function before the acquirer's cut-off.
That applies to terminal transactions. Settlement for e-commerce, payment-link or virtual-terminal payments may differ.
Next-day funding isn't guaranteed for every product or merchant, so we'll confirm it in your comparison.

When an alternative may fit better: For a full EPOS, compare Clover, Elavon Business Control or Worldpay 360. For a broad online toolkit, Worldpay eCommerce is worth comparing.
