Frequently asked questions
How does the quiz choose?
It removes options with slower payouts than you chose, then sorts the rest by estimated monthly fees at your takings, using published rates. Your business type and where you trade add notes. They don't secretly re-rank anything.
Does it use my data?
No. Everything runs in your browser. Nothing is sent or stored.
Is this advice?
No. It's a shortlist built from published prices. Check the provider's own terms before you sign up.
SumUp offers: SumUp runs time-limited hardware offers. On 26 Oct 2026 we saw sale prices below its usual reader prices. Offers may end without notice, so check SumUp's card reader page for the current price (usual prices Solo Lite £25, Solo £79, Terminal £135 ex VAT, checked 28 Oct 2026).
Last checked: 19 Oct 2026. Prices ex VAT unless stated. Figures come from each provider's official UK page. Check it before you buy, because fees and offers change. Tide says its fees go up on 1 Dec 2026. General information, not financial advice.
