When the till and the card machine are separate systems, the gaps between them become somebody’s job. An ePOS solution with payments built in closes those gaps by design.
Check your approval oddsA till that says one number and a card machine that says another means end-of-day detective work. When payments run through the ePOS itself, the sale and the payment are the same record, and cashing up becomes reading, not reconciling.
Re-keying an amount from a till screen into a separate terminal costs seconds on every sale and errors on the worst ones. Payment on the same device removes the re-key entirely, and the queue feels it.
Separate ePOS and payment providers means two contracts, two support lines and two versions of every problem. One account behind hardware, software and settlement means one phone call, answered around the clock.
The same foundation flexes to the floor it lands on. Two dedicated setups cover the most common shapes, and your specialist scopes anything in between.
Orders at the table, payments on the same device, tips and splits handled in the moment. The dedicated restaurant ePOS page covers service from first order to final bill.
A counter till and card payments on one device, keeping the queue moving and the end-of-day honest. The dedicated retail ePOS page covers the counter in full.
The flagship Android terminal, touchscreen, receipt printing, all-day battery and its own connectivity, carries the ePOS apps and the payments together.
The ePOS settles alongside your website, phone orders and payment links, one settlement, one report, one reconciliation.
The same fraud screening and dispute support behind every eCom Pay account stands behind every ePOS sale.
Rates agreed against your actual turnover and reviewed as you grow, with the hardware bought outright and £0 minimum billing behind it.
Fair. So here is what UK merchants say after switching to eCom Pay, in their own words.
It was such a pleasure working with eCom Pay for my company, very straightforward to set up and the team were so helpful. No hidden fees, cost efficient, and from using other platforms before I can say this has been the best so far.

We found eCom Pay to be a simple, efficient payment system to integrate, with a lot of support behind it. Would recommend them over competitors who charge far too much.

ePOS applications are straightforward when they are processed properly. Three things cover most of it, and your specialist walks you through each one.
Start your applicationCompany or sole trader details, your premises and what you sell. For a trading business this is paperwork you already have to hand.
Card turnover if you know it, honest estimates if you are opening. The answer shapes both your rates and how the ePOS is configured for your day.
Your business bank details, so next working day settlement has somewhere to go. That is genuinely most of it, and approval takes 24 hours once your documents are in.
The right configuration follows the floor. This is how we scope it, and you can grow between shapes without starting again.
The restaurant configuration puts ordering and payment on the same portable device, with tips and split bills handled where the guest sits. See the restaurant ePOS page for the full picture.
The retail configuration runs the till and the card payments on one countertop device, built for queues, refunds and clean end-of-day figures. The retail ePOS page has the detail.
A cafe with a counter and tables, or a shop with a service desk, mixes devices on the same account, and your specialist scopes the combination that fits.
A second terminal or a second site joins the same account rather than starting a new relationship, with rates reviewed as the business grows.
Start with the shape that fits, restaurant ePOS or retail ePOS, or compare the hardware in the card machine comparison guide.
An electronic point of sale, the modern till. It records sales, manages products or menus and produces your end-of-day figures. With eCom Pay, the ePOS runs on PAX Android terminals with card payments built into the same device, so the sale and the payment are one record.
No, that is the point. Payments run on the same PAX terminal as the till, which removes re-keying, mismatched totals and the second device on the counter. Additional terminals can join the same account as you grow.
The PAX Android range, with the A920 Pro as the flagship, touchscreen, receipt printing, all-day battery and its own 4G and WiFi. Hardware is bought outright with £0 minimum monthly billing and one transparent software fee.
Yes. The setup is scoped with your specialist and arrives configured for how you actually trade, and changes after go-live go through your personal account manager rather than a ticket queue.
Sales and payments are the same record, so end of day is one report that already agrees with itself, exportable for your bookkeeping, with settlement landing the next working day.
Approval takes 24 hours once your documents are in, and the configured hardware typically arrives within the week, tested and ready for the first sale.
