  You might be better off with the new CBA reader that has lower fees.
  I think that costs $59 to purchase outright.

    You’d be better with the sign “sorry eftpos is down, cash only”

      Sure, but you'd lose a lot of customers.

  Didn't someone on here mention NAB let people paywave to your (nfc) phone?

  1.4% fee…

  Surely someone will make an app soon to do the same for extremely low cost… who wants to join me and make it?

    Unless you run your own bank and card network, otherwise you'll never be able to provide consistent low fees with cost from banks, VISA and MasterCard.

    was interesting but it required android phone …

    the app is a bit fiddly and sometimes it cannot read if someone wants to tap using phone.

    on physical card tapping, it works all the time.

  For Square, you need to fill out their business proposal questionnaire to get your funds into your nominated bank account, otherwise they will hold your funds

    I've setup Square for a heap of footy clubs and it's pretty easy. Just takes a couple of business days for Square to approve.
