Zeller - Awaken Pilates Merchant Portrait

"A lot of our instructors are contractors who work across different studios, so we needed a system that was super intuitive. Having that visual point-of-sale system right on the EFTPOS machine itself makes it so much easier. We've found that our instructors are even more confident to sell the products thanks to how simple it is to use."

Matthew Taylor,

Zeller - Tap to Pay on iPhone

"Once you get it downloaded on somebody's phone, it's so user-friendly. I actually love it. You turn it on, you put the numbers in, tap away and it's done. It's a great system. We also love the ability to scale it up really quickly. For our events we have 20 volunteers using their phones to accept payments with Tap to Pay."

Frequently asked questions

A mobile POS (mPOS) system lets you accept payments and manage sales without being tied to a fixed checkout counter. Instead of bulky, wired equipment, mPOS runs on portable hardware — like a smartphone or a compact terminal — so you can take payments wherever your business happens, whether that's a market stall, a client's home, or a pop-up shop.

A fixed POS is built around stationary hardware — a countertop terminal, cash register, receipt printer, or till — set up in one permanent location. A mobile POS does the same job (taking payments, tracking items, managing sales, providing receipts) but on portable hardware you can carry with you, making it suited to businesses that sell from multiple locations or don't have a fixed storefront at all.

Yes. With Zeller POS Lite, you can turn a compatible iPhone or Android smartphone into a full point-of-sale system using Tap to Pay with Zeller App — accepting contactless card and mobile wallet payments directly on your phone, no extra card reader required. This makes your phone a genuine smartphone POS, with no additional hardware needed to get started.

Yes — mobile POS systems like Zeller POS Lite are cloud-based, so they need an internet connection (Wi-Fi or mobile data) to process payments and sync sales in real time. This is where using your smartphone or a Zeller Terminal works especially in your favour: since they both connect via SIM and mobile data, you're not reliant on a venue's Wi-Fi at all. Both make for a genuinely portable payment terminal setup for markets, events, or anywhere Wi-Fi tends to drop out.

Zeller POS Lite itself is free — there are no monthly fees, lock-in contracts, or setup costs. Transactions are charged at a flat rate of 1.4%, with no monthly subscription costs. You can start selling straight away using Tap to Pay on your smartphone at no hardware cost, or add a Zeller Terminal if you want a dedicated machine or require a receipt printer.
