Worldpay now available for iPhone & iPad

[Bubblecraft]

As some of you know, I use iZettle for card payments. It has its pros & cons. Had a look at Worldpay a while back & signed up to let me know when it's available for iPhone & iPad. Got the email the other day saying its now available & also got an exclusive discount on my chip & pin card reader. From £59.99 to £29.99 so I've signed up & just waiting on my credit check being confirmed.

Be good to be able to take all cards now without having to do it via PayPal for maestro & switch & also the fact in in the bank within 4 business days rather than iZettles 7 days.

If anyone is interested in this deal, here's the link.

PM me for the discount code for the chip & pin card reader.

Hi bubble, don't you do Internet banking? How come it takes 4 days to transfer with the card..do you find it easier with the card payment?
Cheers Andy

Of course, they can pay by
1) Cash - Which is always best
2) Cheque - 5 days to clear, time away from work & fuel costs to put it in the bank & hope it doesn't bounce
3) Paypal - 5-7 days to transfer from Paypal to bank & a high % of fees
4) Pingit - Maximum charge up to £100
5) BACS - Not everyone is setup for Internet or phone banking & some people feel uncomfortable doing it.
5) Card - Via IZettle - Payment there & then. You and customer are both protected. Between 7 & 15 days to clear in bank. Can only take Visa, MasterCard, Diners & AMEX. Maximum amounts taken per day.
6) Card - Via Worldpay - Chip & pin card reader where customer feels more secure using it. Takes Visa, MasterCard & Maestro. Up to £25k per year. In bank within 4 days.

Both card readers are pay as you go. Buy the terminal only. No monthly fees, no rental charges. The reason it takes a while to go into the bank is that is how the make money from you as we'll as the card charges. They hold your money & take the interest before you get it.

Thanks bubblecraft, I've just ordered it.. See how it goes

 

[Bubblecraft]

I'm still waiting on the credit check being done...gulp. I'll take it from there.

I phoned them today to see if I need to send off the direct debit mandate in order to process the application. They said that you will get an email confirming yes or no first so can take it from there.

 

[Bubblecraft]

Thanks bubblecraft, I've just ordered it.. See how it goes

@andy tiler, have you had your acceptance email yet? I phoned them yesterday & they said it's taking a little longer to process the applications at the moment so could take just over a week.

Fingers crossed mate. Did you send your DD mandate away as soon as you put through your application?

 

[Andy Tiler]

Yeah my misses sent it off at the same time? Do you think that's helped??.

[Bubblecraft]

Found out what the hold up is.
Got a letter from Worldpay this morning. Cause I've registered it with a personal bank account, I need to go into a Bank of Scotland or Natwest with a letter from HMRC with business details & a bank statement & have it stamped & send it back. It's to stop money laundering!

Sorted!

 

[Andy Tiler]

I've recieved the machine today!!
I'm gona look at it tomos cos I've only just got in!!!.

 

[Bubblecraft]

Let me know how it is Andy. I need to take a trip to the Bank first Grrr!

So are you using it with an iPhone/iPad or with an Andriod?

iPhone 4S !! The misses can't wait she's charging it up..... Yes course I will keep you updated

 

[Bubblecraft]

I'm dying to play with it to. I was like that when I first got my iZettle

 

[Bubblecraft]

Will be at RBS @ 8.55am tomorrow morning with my docs lol

 

[stone tiler]

Evening. LEt us know how this system goes. I'm with Worldpay already but I have to mess about with typing addresses and all that on the laptop - no terminal. Would be a lot easier

 

[Bubblecraft]

I went to the bank this morning so should hear in a couple of days. Andy already has his one.

Here's a wee vid on the Worldpay with the blackberry to give you an idea

Funnily enough, I took another iZettle payment tonight for £300 so will have to wait 7 days for that to clear. I'm itching to get my chip & pin reader....fingers crossed I get it!

 

[Bubblecraft]

Can't believe it. Got an email from iZettle today. Just typical, they've launched a chip & pin reader. I already have a business account so all I need to do is buy the device @ £58.80 but I'm still waiting on Worldpay verifying my application! Well, if it fails with Worldpay, at least I can fall back on iZettle
