Fast at the counter
Contactless cards, Apple Pay and Google Pay in a tap, so the Friday-night queue keeps moving.
Card machines for takeaways
Quick payments at the counter, card payments for phone orders and money in your bank the next day. Keep the queue moving on your busiest nights.
What takeaways need
Built for busy evenings
Takeaways take orders at the counter and over the phone, often all at once. Your payments need to handle both.
Card payments for phone orders
Take card payments over the phone or send a payment link, so orders are paid before they leave the kitchen.
Next-day settlement
Takings in your bank the next working day, to keep stock and staff paid.
Which terminal?
The right card machine for takeaways
PAX A35: for the counter
A compact countertop terminal that links to your EPOS, so the order total appears on the terminal automatically.

Already have a card machine? Send us a recent statement and we'll show you what you could save, up to 50% on some fees. If you're already on a great deal, we'll tell you straight. Read our card machine fees guide to see what to compare.
*0.29% applies to UK consumer debit cards for businesses with monthly card takings above £40,000. Credit, business and international card rates, and rates for lower takings, are quoted individually. Subject to eligibility and status.
Can I take card payments for phone orders?
Yes. You can take card payments over the phone (MOTO) or send the customer a secure payment link by text, so the order is paid before it goes out.
What card machine is best for a takeaway counter?
If you use an EPOS or till, a countertop terminal like the PAX A35 linked to it is quick and avoids typing totals twice. If you also deliver, a portable PAX A920 Pro with 4G can go to the door.
How are fees charged on lots of small orders?
Most deals have a percentage plus a small fixed fee per transaction. With lots of small orders, compare both. Our card machine fees guide explains each charge.
Can I switch if I'm still in a contract?
Often, yes. Send us your statement and we'll look into it. In some cases, subject to approval, we can help with the exit fee.
