PAYMENT TERMINALS

Payment terminals for any business need.

Does your small business accept credit cards? If the answer is no, then a credit card machine is a great place to start. We have a wide selection of credit card readers to choose from.

 

What is the best credit card terminal for small businesses in Canada?

There is no single answer to this question. It all depends on your business needs. If you would like the ability, now or in the future, to activate, redeem, and reload gift cards, or issue and redeem customer loyalty and rewards points, we recommend the Ingenico Move/5000 or Desk/5000. Both of these devices are preloaded with our customer engagement software.
