No matter what size or type of business you operate, there’s one thing every business has in common: taking payments.
Australians prefer the convenience of making electronic payments. The latest Reserve Bank of Australia research shows about 75 percent of transactions in 2022 used debit and credit cards, and 95 percent of these purchases used contactless payments.
But what if your business needs the flexibility to take payments in a way that traditional EFTPOS can offer?
Welcome to the world of mobile payment technology – user friendly, convenient and safe ways to take payments on the go.
Which option is right for me?
The right option for you will depend on the type of business you run and the flexibility you need.
Here’s what you need to know;
