What is a portable card machine?

A portable card machine is simply a handheld card machine that uses wireless technology, so you don’t have to be tied to your till to take payments.

With a portable card machine, you can accept payments anywhere on your premises within Wi-Fi range, be it tableside, outside, at the bar, or from the queue.

A portable card machine allows you to process credit and debit card payments away from one fixed location. Once a portable card machine is connected to the specified Wi-Fi, it will work anywhere within that Wi-Fi range.

You can use a portable card machine in the same way you would use a stationary, countertop card machine; the main difference is that it’s portable and can be used anywhere within the connected Wi-Fi range or with 4G LTE. Simply insert (chip and PIN) or tap (contactless) a credit or debit card, or device and the payment is processed as normal.

If you’d like to purchase a Clover Flex portable card machine, or if you’d like further information about the product, contact our Sales team today.

To get a quote for our Clover Flex portable card machine, simply contact our Sales team today.

To charge your Clover Flex handset, simply plug the device into the charging cradle. Be sure to charge the handset for at least 30 minutes before use.

A portable card machine works by connecting to a specified Wi-Fi and functioning from anywhere within the Wi-Fi’s range. A mobile card machine, on the other hand, connects wirelessly to the strongest signal available through a SIM card. Clover Flex allows you to do both.

The types of businesses that can benefit from a portable card machine are those that trade 'on-the-go' from locations with an accessible Wi-Fi signal. This could include pubs, bars, restaurants, cafes, hotels, salons, and spas, to name a few.

The best portable card machine for a small business is one that’s powerful, convenient, easy to use, and packed full of supportive apps. The Clover Flex is a dynamic portable card machine that includes all these features, as well as many others.
