Mobile Solutions
In many businesses such as restaurants, hotels, trade shows, fast food delivery and mobile services such as plumbers, locksmiths and electricians a business needs to be able to take secure Chip and Pin payments at the point of sale. This allows for peace of mind for the customer and security for the merchant, together with savings in time and efficiency by not having to fulfil a Cardholder Not Present transaction at a later date.
Customer research has shown that over 80% of restaurant customers prefer payment at their table, instead of having to queue at the checkout. A business attending a Trade or Business Show can take a mobile terminal with them and not have to worry about expensive phone lines on their stand, and Bluecygnet can arrange long or short term contracts (minimum one month), depending on your requirements.
