What is a card payment machine?
A card payment machine (also called a Chip and PIN machine, PDQ machine, or card terminal) lets businesses accept secure payments from credit and debit cards. No matter what the payment method is, the machine reads the card details, requests authorisation from the bank, and confirms the transaction in a few moments.
Both credit card machines and card readers process card payments in the same way. The main difference can be, in some cases, size and features. Some card readers are smaller and may need a smartphone or tablet to function. Whether large or compact, both devices let you swiftly process payments.
Take card payments the way your customers prefer
Customers want choice at checkout. With Clover card payment machines, businesses can accept contactless payments, Chip and PIN, mobile wallets such as Apple Pay and Google Pay, and digital gift cards. However your customers choose to pay, you’ll be ready.
