What is a card machine?

A card machine is a point-of-sale system that allows for fast and secure transactions and payments. Suitable for both debit card payments and credit card payments, Clover card machines provide a flexible payment solution for your customers.

Card machines can connect to Wi-Fi or networks so that you can process payments on the go. With a 4G LTE roaming SIM and a fast-charging battery, you’ll be able to take payments as long as you have internet connection.

Featuring the same reliable payment technology and speed as countertop models, portable card machines make sure that you can keep your business moving forwards.

  • Item 1 of 6 Portable
  • Item 2 of 6 Mobile
  • Item 3 of 6 Countertop
  • Item 4 of 6 Contactless
  • Item 5 of 6 Chip & PIN
  • Item 6 of 6 PDQ

First, a customer inserts their credit or debit card into the Chip and PIN machine and enters their 4-digit PIN (personal identification number) on the terminal’s keypad. This allows the machine to read the information stored on the card’s computer chip in order to securely process the transaction. Alternatively, as long as the customers card has not been used for contactless payments too many times in one day (and is within the contactless payment threshold), a customer simply taps the card machine to authorise their purchase. 

A card machine can also be called a Chip and PIN machine, a card terminal, a card reader or a PDQ machine.

Yes. A card machine is another name for a card reader. However, that doesn’t mean that all card readers and card machines are the same as each other.
