Use the iPhone in your pocket with no machine at all, an integrated terminal we ship pre-paired, or keep the one you already have. Deposits and staged payment plans collect themselves — and every payment ties back to the order and the bride.
Most systems lock you to their processor and their hardware lease. We don't. Pick the rung that suits your counter — change it whenever.
The only way to take a card in person with no card machine at all. Hold the customer's card, Apple Pay or Google Pay to the top of the iPhone you already own — the sale is done and posted to the order.
Want a proper machine on the counter? We sell and pre-configure one, paired to your till — the amount is pushed to it, the result comes back, and the day reconciles itself. Nothing typed twice.
Already have a machine and a rate you like? Keep it. Key the amount in as you do today and mark it paid in the till. No switching, no penalty, no new contract.
A £2,000 gown isn't one payment — it's a deposit, a few instalments and a balance on collection. BoutiqueHQ treats a payment plan as a real object your team and the bride can see, with reminders that chase themselves.
Rivals tie you to a one-year hardware lease with a balloon penalty. We'd rather earn it — keep your terminal, keep your rate, and take your data with you if you ever go.
Simple flat-rate pricing for most shops; interchange-plus only where the volume makes it cheaper. We tell you which suits you — we don't dress it up.
Flat rate for Tap to Pay + integrated terminal — the right default for shops under ~£10–15k/month.
Card-not-present rate on portal deposits and instalments, so staged payments still earn their keep.
Interchange-plus for the busiest multi-location shops, where it beats flat rate. We flag it when you cross the line.
No. Take payments on your iPhone with no machine at all, buy an integrated one from us, or keep the terminal you already have. Your choice, and you can change it later.
Yes — it's a full contactless card reader built into iPhone XS and newer (iOS 16.4+). Contactless, Apple Pay and Google Pay tap straight onto the phone; higher amounts take a PIN on the screen. No dongle, no second device.
That's the point of payment plans. Set a deposit and instalment schedule at the till; reminders go out on their own and the bride can pay her balance from her portal before collection.
Yes. The amount is pushed to the reader and the result comes back into the till, tied to the exact order, deposit or instalment — so your end-of-day adds up without manual matching.
Adding a surcharge to consumer cards has been banned in the UK since 2018, so we don't offer it here — the fee is a cost of trading, priced in like any other.
Free 30-day trial, no card to begin, and we migrate your data for free. Trade the same day on the iPhone you already own.
