  • Get a card reader.

    Zettle is now owned by Paypal.

    Square, Sumup, probably plenty of others. Similar fees for all - about £30 for the reader and then a couple of % per transaction.
    Very easy to set up and you can do the admin side from a phone app.

    Set up the same for swim session payment for my local tri club. Far easier than accepting coins per person per swim

  • But then I or someone else needs to be there to accept payment like a cashier, is that right?

    Do you use your personal paypal account?

  • I linked the club bank account, but I'm sure you could link to your own, or open a free account with someone like Starling

    Looks like you can either send links for people to pay without the card reader (but then you could probably just use a payment link straight to the bank account)

    Also looks like the card readers now can connect to Wifi and no need to have the phone anymore

    Also seen Tipjar at places where the reader is stuck to the wall and it's auto set to £3 for example, and you just tap the phone/card to to give a tip.
    But fees look pretty high given it's just a glorified card reader

    though it is simple
