Card Machines for Taxi Drivers
As a taxi driver, you know the importance of providing a quick and convenient service to your customers. In today's fast-paced world, fewer people carry cash; we now prefer the ease of card payments. That's where the UTP Pro Lite comes in, offering you the perfect solution to streamline your business and increase customer satisfaction.
WHY SHOULD I ACCEPT CARD PAYMENTS IN MY TAXI?
Did you know that 93% of all card payments under £100 are made by contactless card? By accepting card payments, you’re tapping into a growing market of customers who prefer this method. A lot of the time, when we are ordering a taxi, we are in a rush. We might not have time to go to a cash machine, so we select a company that accepts card payments instead. From rush hour to unexpected roadworks, the length of a journey can vary and so can the fare. If your customer doesn’t have the correct amount of cash and must stop at a cash machine to withdraw, it could negatively impact their experience and potentially lose you another fare by taking up your time.
Only one in five of us take our wallets out with us daily; this number is even lower among younger people. We now rely heavily on contactless payments, such as the digital wallets on our smartphones or smartwatches, and of course, credit and debit cards. If your business only accepts cash and we don’t have our physical bank card on us, you risk losing a customer as they won’t be able to withdraw cash. The UTP Pro Lite accepts chip and PIN, contactless payments, digital wallets, and magstripe payments, ensuring that your customers can pay by whichever method best suits them.
Payments On-the-Go
As a taxi driver, you’re always on the move. Our UTP Pro Lite uses 4G connectivity, allowing you to take payments no matter where you are. This means you can process transactions quickly and efficiently, whether you’re in a busy city centre or a remote location. It’s lightweight (390g) and portable with a large touchscreen, making it easy to handle and store in your vehicle.
Long Life Battery
Long shifts mean you need reliable equipment. The UTP Pro Lite card machine boasts a long-life battery, ensuring it will last throughout your entire working day without needing frequent recharges. With this reliability you can focus on your customers without worrying about your payment device running out of power.
Take Payments by Phone
Our Virtual Terminal enables you to take payments over the phone. For longer journeys or pre-bookings during busy times, many taxi companies take payment in advance. This secures the booking for your customer as well as ensuring you receive payment.
