Manchester's business scene is competitive and fast-moving. You need a payments partner that keeps up, keeps costs low, and keeps you in control.

Rates that work for you
We tailor transaction rates to your business volume and sector. Manchester's independent retailers and hospitality businesses benefit from rates that are consistently lower than the big-name payment providers.
Zero monthly costs
No terminal rental. No setup fee. No PCI compliance charge. No minimum monthly spend. Manchester businesses keep more of what they earn, because you only pay when you process a transaction.
