Small businesses love Zeller.

The Zeller brand has a personal touch, and the Zeller Sales team gave me a sense of security which other providers had not done. I felt like I was dealing with a smaller, local business, which felt more representative of myself and my brand.

Choosing an EFTPOS machine for your small business is an important decision. The right merchant services provider will support you to get paid and put your takings to work quickly. However, without proper research, you could find yourself locked into a lengthy contract with hidden fees and charges that eat into profits.

With a low, flat transaction fee for all in-person payments, multiple connectivity options for your mobile EFTPOS machine, fast settlement times, a free business Mastercard, real-time visibility over your cash flow and no contracts. Zeller is a powerful all-in-one solution for growing businesses to seamlessly accept EFTPOS payments.

Accepting Card Payments at Your Small Business

Cash payments are in steep decline. The majority of customers these days want to pay with a card, such as Mastercard, Visa, AMEX or EFTPOS. For small businesses, having the ability to accept every payment from every customer is critical.

As cash use continues to fall and electronic payment methods become the go-to option, your EFTPOS for small business will be vital to the long-term success of your business. Ensure your business is set up for success by choosing an EFTPOS terminal with broad card acceptance, so you’ll never need to send customers to the nearest ATM and risk losing a sale.

Finding the Best EFTPOS Machine For Your Small Business

Some merchants make the mistake of forgoing integral features in search of the cheapest EFTPOS for small businesses. For small businesses in Australia, this may mean choosing a merchant services provider that will rent you an EFTPOS for a set period — often 12 or 24 months. The problem with that is you end up paying more in the long run, and at the end of the rental period you are left without the ability to accept card payments.

To find the most affordable EFTPOS for your small business, consider all of the costs including:

  • transaction fees

  • rental fees

  • transaction account keeping fees

  • set-up fees

  • statement fees

  • penalties for ending a contract early

and more.

Zeller Terminal: An Affordable EFTPOS Machine for Small Businesses

With Zeller, in-person transactions cost just 1.4% — no matter which card or digital device your customer chooses to use. There are no hidden fees, rental fees or ongoing charges to worry about. Zeller Terminal is yours to keep for just $299, and you’re not tied into a contract. Cheapest EFTPOS machine solution in Australia.

There are other important factors to consider when choosing the best eftpos terminal for your small business. In Australia, severe weather and service upgrades can cause internet outages. There are also some remote areas where internet coverage is poor. If your merchant services provider cannot offer backup connectivity in the event of a service interruption or outage, your business will not be able to accept card or digital wallet payments from customers. That’s why Zeller Terminals can be powered by a mobile hotspot, Wi-Fi or Zeller SIM Card.

It’s also important to consider settlement times. The time it takes your merchant services facility to deposit funds to your nominated account will affect your cash flow. The sooner funds are cleared, the sooner you can use them to pay suppliers and bills. When you take payment via Zeller Terminal, funds are deposited into your free Zeller Transaction Action on the same day — giving you fast access to your funds. Spend the money you make using your free Zeller Mastercard as soon as funds clear. It’s the quickest way to speed up your cash flow and grow your business.
