Which card terminal is the cheapest for my restaurant?

When it comes to which card terminal is the cheapest, we recommend not focusing only on the price of the terminal. What matters more are the fees for card payments and the features the terminal offers, as these can affect both efficiency and the guest experience in the restaurant. Caspeco offers mobile solutions that let you place orders and take payments directly at the table, in the same terminal.

Important things to consider when choosing a card terminal

• Compare transaction fees and acquiring agreements. Compare fees between acquirers – that’s where you see the differences, and it will guide you towards the right terminal.
• Analytics and data – buy a terminal that also collects sales data in a way that makes it easy to analyse and follow up.
• Ordering and payment in the same device – place orders directly at the table and take payment as soon as the guest asks for it.
• Card payment fees – make sure you understand the transaction costs, not just the purchase price.
• Multiple payment methods – choose a terminal that accepts the payment options your guests want to use, such as Swish, Klarna, Visa and Mastercard.
• Functionality – can the terminal easily split the bill by item and by amount? Does it work in offline mode, and can it send orders directly to the kitchen or bar?
