Many small businesses start off as cash-only. When you decide to accept card payments, it can be challenging to figure out which card machine is best for you. What if you could get a card machine that processes payments 3 times faster and ensures the money is in your account the next day? Sounds great, right? Meet Capitec’s Pro and Print card machines.
Here’s how the Pro and Print card machines can help your business grow:
1. Get paid the next day – no extra fees
With some card machines, it can take days to receive the money from sales and there’s often an extra charge for next-day settlements. But with the Pro and Print, your sales income is available the next day – no hidden fees, even on weekends and public holidays.
Why do fast payments matter? You’ll have quicker access to your money, meaning you can buy more stock, pay bills or invest in your business. Knowing when you’ll get paid helps you manage your business finances more efficiently.
2. Keep more of your earnings
How much of each sale do you keep when you accept card payments? This is an important consideration when choosing a card machine. Get some of the lowest rates in the market with less than 1% on debit card transactions and less than 2% on credit card transactions (excluding VAT). That means more of your money stays in your pocket.
3. Get credit to grow your business
You may qualify for business credit after using the card machines for 3 months. And the best part? You don’t need to track your sales manually – it’s all done automatically. It makes applying for credit much easier and faster, helping you grow your business without the hassle.
4. No monthly fees or hidden costs
Unlike many other card machines, the Pro and Print come with a low, one-time cost. There are no monthly fees or hidden charges. What you see is what you get – simple and affordable.
5. Long battery life – ready for load-shedding
Running a business during load-shedding can be challenging. However, these machines have an all-day battery life, so you can keep accepting payments even when the power goes out.
Invest in your business’s future
Getting a card machine isn’t just about giving your customers more payment options –it’s about investing in your business’s future. By accepting card payments, you’re meeting customer expectations and making your operations more efficient, secure and hassle-free.
A good card machine can be a game-changer for your business.
